In a field experiment (three factors in split plot design A*B/C) over a period of three years, the influence of the row distance (37.5 and 75 cm) on the yield, the starch and energy content of silage maize was studied using three plant densities (7, 10 and 13 m-2) and three varieties. There were no significant interactions between row distance, plant density and variety. There were no significant DM yield differences between the row distances. Silage maize planted at the higher row distance of 75 cm had higher starch and energy contents than planted at the lower row distance of 37.5 cm. At higher plant densities higher DM yields and at lower plant densities higher energy contents were found. The maximum starch contents were found at low and medium plant densities depending on the year. The varieties differed in yield, whereas the starch and energy content differences were rather low.
