RaahaExim’s corn silage is harvested at peak starch content to deliver 20–25% more metabolizable energy than traditional dry hay. This high energy density is essential for maintaining milk potential in high-producing dairy cows during peak lactation. Vacuum-sealed and exported from Gujarat, our silage includes full fermentation analysis and phytosanitary certification for the USA, UK, Australia, and Europe.
Corn Silage vs Dry Hay vs Crop Residue — Forage Quality Comparison
| Performance Parameter | Dry Hay / Crop Residue | RaahaExim Corn Silage |
|---|---|---|
| Metabolizable Energy (MJ/kg DM) | 7–9 MJ — low | 10–11 MJ — 20–25% higher |
| Dry Matter Intake Stimulation | Moderate — can limit intake | High — stimulates voluntary DMI |
| Starch Content | Very low — mainly fibre | 28–35% starch — direct milk energy |
| Rumen pH Buffering | Poor — acidosis risk at high grain | Good — lactic acid stabilises rumen pH |
| Year-Round Availability | Seasonal — quality variable | 12+ months in sealed bales |
| Milk Yield Response | Limited — insufficient energy for peak cows | +1.9 kg more milk/cow/day (average)* |
| Fertility and Reproductive Support | Poor energy balance — delays return to cycle | Good — supports energy balance post-calving |
| Metabolic Disease Risk | Higher — energy gaps drive ketosis | Lower — consistent energy supply |
| Storage Stability | Quality degrades over time | Full nutrition stable for 12+ months sealed |
* Milk yield response based on published research data: inclusion of corn silage in grass silage-based dairy rations improved forage dry matter intake by 2 kg/day and milk yield by 1.9 kg/day on average (Journal of Dairy Science).

Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions from International Buyers
The minimum order is one 20-foot container, which holds approximately 15–18 metric tonnes of sealed silage bales depending on bale dimensions and container packing. We also accommodate trial LCL (less-than-container load) shipments for buyers evaluating their first import. Contact us to discuss the best option for your volume.
We provide a third-party fermentation quality analysis with every shipment — covering pH, lactic acid content, acetic acid, butyric acid, ammonia nitrogen, and dry matter. This report is prepared by an accredited laboratory and supplied with the shipping documents so you can verify quality before the container is loaded
We harvest at the two-thirds milk-line dough stage, when the corn grain has 30–35% dry matter. Research consistently shows this is the optimal point for maximum starch content and digestibility — giving the highest energy silage possible. Harvesting earlier reduces starch; harvesting later reduces digestibility. Harvest timing is the single most important quality factor in corn silage.
We offer FOB (Free on Board) from Mundra Port, Gujarat and CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight) to your destination port. For first-time importers, CIF is the simpler choice — we manage freight and insurance to your port. Experienced importers often prefer FOB for greater logistics control and cost management.
Our corn silage is packed in vacuum-sealed round bales, each approximately 300–400 kg, wrapped in multiple layers of stretch film to ensure airtight storage. This packaging maintains fermentation quality and prevents spoilage for 12+ months from the production date in ambient covered storage — no refrigeration required.
Yes. We can arrange sample bales for qualified buyers who are evaluating the product for the first time. Sample shipments include a full fermentation analysis and nutritional profile. Contact us with your destination country and we will advise on the sample arrangement process.
