Milk/ton is an index of forage quality. Milk/ton is calculated from the Milk2006 Excel spreadsheet (http://www.uwex.edu/ces/crops/uwforage/dec_soft.htm). This index uses forage analyses (crude protein [CP], neutral detergent fiber [NDF], neutral detergent fiber digestibility [NDFD] 48hr, Starch, and non-fiber carbohydrate) to estimate energy content, and uses dry matter intake and NDFD 48hr to predict Milk/ton. Forage corn quality was predicted using the new Milk2006 program
