Abstract: The harvesting time has obviously effect on forage nutritive value of corn. The experimental results indicated that maize forage nutritive value was not optimum at the black layer stage, on the contrary, forage nutritive value of LD 50 and HO 115 was optimum at the end of the milking or at the early waxen stage, that of KD 8 was optimum at the milking stage. Furthermore, among three type corns the biomass and the crude protein outputs of KD8 were the highest; the ether extract content and output of HO 115 was the highest.

Key words: Maize, Harvesting stage, Forage nutritive value
