This research conducted in the experimental fields of Ege University Agriculture Faculty Field Crops Department and Ödemiş Training College at main crop seson in 2005-2006. Maize cultivars (ÇT-1, Helen, C-955, Brasco) were used and tested for some silage quality characteristics (dry matter rate, silage loss, silage pH, flieg score, color, structre, odor and DLG score) at two locations which have different soil types. Results indicated that, there were no significant differences between maize cultivars and location in terms of silage quality.
