Up in my neck of the woods(Western NY state) we wouldn't be able to farm without silage to much moisture to make good dry hay. Se we put up Haylage- chopped grass or alfalfa approx. 60% moisture Corn silage - chopped corn stalks and ear approx 65% moisture Snap corn - chopped ear corn approx 40% moisture Baleage -high density round bales wrapped in shrink wrap approx 30-70% moisture The key to making silage is you need to seal the crop from oxygen in some type of storage device so teh crop can ferment. Upright or tower silos, ag bags or bunker silos are common ways to store hay, corn or snap silage. Baleage has to be wrapped by a special machine that stretches the plastic over the bales. I'll try to get some pics up of the various types of silage and the storage and harvesting equipment that is used to make it.
