Sažetak

Global energy demands are constantly growing, which can be seen lately in rising energy prices. Because of that, renewable sources became an important source of energy. According to the latest European trend and due to the entry of new European directives annual crops are becoming unsuitable for cultivation due to the negative impact on the food sector, but also due to the growing impact on climate change. One of the raw materials is corn silage, which is used in biogas production. This paper provides an overview of current knowledge on production technology, but also on storage of corn silage and its application in biofuel production. This paper aims to answer the questions why corn preserved in form of silage has become a frequently used one-year energy crop in biofuel production, but also to point out the problems of its use if the same trend continues in the future.
