crops, such as maize, sorghum, oats, pearl millet, and hybrid napier rich in soluble carbohydrates
because the Quality of silage can be improved with the use of suitable additives such as molasses, urea, salt, formic acid etc.

Answer:
The crops which are rich in carbohydrate content are suitable for silage. Examples: maize, millet etc.
Explanation:
- Silage is the fodder which we conserve to feed the animals later. Silage has more than 60% moisture. The silage crop after being cut is incubated for about 50 days.
- If we add some salt or formic acid the quality of the silage can be improved.
- If we take proper care in storing the silage, we can store it for about two years.
