Fodder plant coming around the end of April (6)
I believe the answer is:
silage
'fodder' is the definition.
(fodder used to feed animals)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for silage that I've seen before include "Fermented feeding stuff for cattle" , "Form of fodder" , "Fodder that's partially fermented" , "Animal foodstuff" , "Green fodder stored and fermented" .)
