Silage conservation in plastic tube bags – minimum losses, flexible and highly efficient
In 1993, BAG Budissa Agroservice GmbH revived the practice of ensiling into large plastic bags, which was first known in Germany as the Eberhardt silo press in the 1960s. Silage conserved in silo bags is very well-suited to fermentation, has a long storage life and lower ensilage losses. Different bag lengths and diameters ensure a fitting solution for farms of all sizes.
Depending on requirements, this flexible, efficient process can support tonnages from 1,000 to over 30,000 t per year. Dif ferent materials can be stored including grass and maize silage, whole plant silage, high-moisture grain and industrial by-products (such as pressed pulp or malt spent grains).
This process has a payback period of two to five years, as it does not require any construction work or machine capacity utilisation. A government research project has proven that using silo bags for storage is an ecologically sound practice. However, sufficient storage space is needed.
BAG Budissa Agroservice GmbH, based in Saxony, offers a wide range of products and expert advice drawing on 15 years of experience working with more than 20 countries, within and outside Europe, and cooperating closely with scientific institutions in different locations.
