  • Page 68: Indications For Producing Optimal Silage

    Preliminary operations Indications for The technique of ensiling fodder in round bales wrapped mechanically with plastic film originated in northern Europe, and has become producing optimal increasingly widespread due to the numerous advantages offered with silage respect to traditional silage systems (e.g.: storage of the fodder in vertical or horizontal silos, preservation of the bales in hermetically sealed polyethylene bags, stacks of round bales covered with plastic film).
  • Page 69 Preliminary operations Essential character- The plastic films used to wrap round bales are polyethylene (PE) based, and are integrated with isobutyl rubber to ensure "stretch- istics of the stretch ability", as well as the copolymer ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) to film improve their mechanical strength.

  • Page 74 Preliminary operations In order to produce good silage, 4 layers of film overlap are normally sufficient, and the bale must therefore be wrapped 2 times entirely (2+2 system) (one complete turn of the bale on its axis), thus creating a high degree of resistance to the passage of air. The bale will only need to be covered with 6 layers (2+2+2 system) under particular circumstances (extreme weather conditions or long- term storage), although this method increases the possibility of air...
