The ensilage of moist grain involves storing harvested grain with high moisture levels, breaking down the grain, and producing a high-quality feed for animals through proper lactic fermentation.
Silobolsa Plastar it’s a silage bag (or silobag) that optimizes harvests, specifically manufactured for the ensilage of moist grains, intended for dairy farms, feedlots, and the growth of young cattle (early weaning).
Benefits
Early Harvest
Early Harvest: The harvest can be advanced by 30 to 45 days, depending on the crop and the desired moisture level.
Early pasture release
Early pasture release, allowing for the consideration of crop rotations different from traditional ones.
Improved management of pastures
Improved management of pastures designated for forage, obtaining highly nutritious forage that can be used with livestock and allowing for longer fallow periods.
Availability of material
Availability of material near the consumption site and already ground for direct feeding to animals.
Reduction of losses
Reduction of losses caused by birds, particularly advantageous for sorghum crops with low or no tannin content, as it is harvested before bird attacks occur.
APPLICATION AND CROPS
They are used in wet grain grinding and stuffing machines. They also allow for the storage of alfalfa, malt residues, industrial by-products, dry fine-grain cereals storage, among others, including fertilizer storage and malt residues. The crops traditionally reserved for wet grain are primarily maize and sorghum, which are the ones mainly used.
