MAIZE

 

Maize is a well-known source of biogas, having the
advantages of a high methane yield per acre and being
relatively easy to store.


When choosing varieties, high dry matter and high yields are
the major considerations; however yields of ME and starch
should also be taken into account.


Dry matter at harvest is vitally important. For efficient
ensiling the maize needs to achieve a dry matter content
of between 30% and 32%. Some of the ultra high yielding
varieties grown on the continent for Biogas may not reach
this maturity in the UK climate.
