When grass fibre content falls below these optimum levels (e.g. early spring flush) supplementary feeding of fibre may be necessary to prevent grass from passing through the rumen too rapidly.

When making silage, the aim should be to cut at 16-20% dry matter and ensile at 30-35% dry matter (for clamp silage) and 35-40% (baled). This will ensure good fermentation and optimum intakes, and minimum risk of aerobic instability.
