Would have 2-3x that cost in plastic here. When I’ve put plastic over corn silage we set bales up on the pile 4-5’ then pull them down to tension the plastic and get it tight. Got the same spoilage with/without the plastic. Really think a dedicated oxygen barrier is needed to keep quality, and I’m not wanting to deal with that yet.
These are old wet bales, can’t make them any worse than they already are.
Be very very careful with the assumption that old, wet no-good bales are “suitable” for silage walls. Those would be the absolute LAST ones I’d want next to silage. Molds and listeria….. |
First time making oatlage, questions
