Guarantee the quality of your feed — don't miss the final step!
You have grown corn and harvested it—now the main thing remains: to preserve everything that was obtained with such hard work. And not just to preserve the quantity, but also the quality—the nutritional value for herd productivity, as well as sanitary safety for animal health and milk purity.
Ensure the quality of your feed — don't miss the final step!
You have grown the corn and harvested the crop — now it is important to do the main thing: preserve everything that was gained with such hard work. Moreover, you need to preserve not only the volume, but also the quality — the nutritional value for the productivity of the herd and the sanitary safety for animal health and milk purity.
Size and airtightness of the silage trench — two key factors for successful storage
1. Correct size of the silage pit
Silage of the correct size
1 m3 of silage = 200–220 kg of dry matter (DM)
Number of animals
X kg / DM / day
2. Airtight sealing of the silage
Ensure a uniform supply of material — for this purpose, two silages loaded in parallel are often used.
And in the end — additional compaction of the last layer, closing the side films, and covering the silage mass from above to achieve complete airtightness.
Upon completion of the work, it is necessary to pay attention to the high-quality compaction of the last portion of feed entering the silage. Then, the side films laid along the trench walls are wrapped, and the silage is covered from above to ensure complete airtightness and protection from air ingress.
Fermentation and feed-out — the finishing touches
Two important conditions for obtaining high-quality and nutritious silage
High-yielding corn offered by European seed companies combines the latest genetic achievements and technologies.
This ensures high yield potential, as well as healthy, high-quality seeds whose varietal purity and germination meet the strictest criteria.
MORE ENERGY, BETTER DIGESTIBILITY
Our forage corn is the result of research by the best specialists. Therefore, our modern varieties contain more easily digestible fibers while maintaining a high energy value. With an average value of 0.91 UFL/kg DM, corn is a competitive feed that is easily combined with others. This value is the result of our investment in R&D and the use of the most advanced breeding methods.
