Extreme weather may lead to a decision to make corn silage rather than harvest corn for grain that will exceed current silage storage capacity.

3 mains storage options:

- Silage bags: Silage bags are a good option for storing corn silage. They allow for flexibility in both storage capacity and location. Bags should be inspected regularly for holes and repaired immediately with bag tape if damage occurs.

- Drive-over piles: Using drive-over piles is a relatively economical option for storing large volumes of silage. An outstanding feature is the moisture range of 65 to 72% which works well for corn silage in drive-over piles. The key to making quality silage in piles is that the silage should be placed in 6-inch layers and packed with heavy machinery equipped with a front-end loader or push blade.

- Trench silos: An alternative to pile construction is a trench design. Short sidewalls can be constructed as slopped outward from the bottom and height should be kept to a minimum. Lining the sides with plastic before filling will reduce spoilage losses and improve feed quality.
