Silage Film
Our Silage Film provides farmers and horticulturists throughout the UK with a way of maintaining the nutritional value of their forage plants such as corn, vegetables, and grasses after cutting, for longer lasting, higher quality silage.
The problem
Many farmers depend on silage year-round in order to fertilise their crops and provide livestock with a rich, nutritious feed.
Crops continue to respire after cutting, however, making storing and maintaining quality silage a challenge. Unprotected, the quality and condition of your forage crops deteriorates all the time until the silage is too poor to use. At this point, it is wasted, and you are left without the nutritious fertiliser you depend on for healthy crops.
How Silage Film helps
Silage Film is integral to successful silage production. The film excludes the air to your forage so lactic acid fermentation can take place, leaving a vitamin and carotene-rich feed. When properly wrapped with Silage Film, the feed can keep its quality for several months, meaning your silage is always available when you need it the most. (For example, during busy growing periods, or seasons when forage is not sufficiently available.)
