Maize a major forage crop, because the highest accumulation of solar energy per area unit is accomplished by maize production and ensiling. At the Maize Research Institute, Zemun Polje, selection, testing and evaluation of silage maize. The aim of this study was to draw attention to this extremely significant field of science and studies on the utilisation of the whole maize plant (biomass) in feeding of domestic animals, primarily ruminants.
