THREE STAGES TO MAKING QUALITY SILAGE

Stage Three Pitting And Bailing

Pitting or baling silage isn’t just about getting the job done. This stage of the silage making process can be a make or break in terms of having a quality feed for livestock and reducing costly losses. So it’s important to get it right.

Along with using the right pitting and baling techniques, using quality silage covers plays a really crucial role in protecting your silage; both during the fermentation process and throughout the winter feeding months.
