Anyone here have any experience with silage in bags? I seem to recall reading about such a product produced in the states but haven't yet been able to find the website again. A change of computers and this lousy remote connection I have has really slowed things down. :devil2:
Not in bags that size. We bagged grass silage on the farm I worked on in Scotland and re-used the bags from year to year, but they were standard size round bales, 5- 600 kg wet weight.
I've seen wrapped bales the same size (might by 4 x 5 ft in US sizing?) of both whole crop silage and corn silage over here in NZ displayed at Fieldays... it looks like a very good result, it is also very very expensive to buy.
I'm wondering if the product would ensile properly in such small quantities? Probably it'd be fine. With bags, however, there's a lot more trapped air than with wrapped silage.
