Continued research by Pioneer has led to BMR products with fibre digestibility gains as well as improved yield, agronomics and disease resistance. Backed by Corteva AgriscienceTM, Pioneer will continue to be a leader in providing top-performing BMR products for improved digestibility and higher milk production.

Higher Fibre Digestibility for Better Milk Production
Increased Fibre Digestibility for Better Milk Production
If higher milk production is what you’re after, there’s no comparison. Pioneer® brand BMR corn silage offers outstanding fibre digestibility, which leads to higher feed consumption among high producing cows. It’s high-quality silage for better cow performance.
Better Overall Health & Milk Production
- Feeding high quality, high forage diets can help improve the overall health of a dairy herd. • University of Wisconsin-Madison studies2 show that using BMR versus standard corn silage can increase milk production by 1.5 kgs per day.
- BMR hybrids have lower levels of undigested fibre (uNDF) than standard corn silage hybrids – a critical attribute for improving forage intake and dairy cow performance.
Higher Digestibility for Peak Performance
- BMR hybrids have less lignin content and average 7-percentage points higher 24 hour fibre digestibility than competitor’s non-BMR corn silage.
- When fed to high producing dairy cows, BMR corn silage can increase dry matter intake which may result in greater milk production.
Higher Feed Intake
Dairy cows consume more corn silage when it contains lower levels of undigested fibre (uNDF, 240hr, % DM). Pioneer® brand BMR corn silage products averages 3-percentage points lower in undigested fibre compared to leading competitor’s standard corn silage.
