The most common cereals for silage in Alberta are barley or oats. Spring triticale is gaining wider acceptance for its role as both a silage crop and as a rotation crop in silage production systems. Plant breeding efforts are leading to the development of newer cultivars of spring triticale, winter triticale and oats with improved forage quality characteristics for silage production.
