MA 6-2131 moisture silage to the careful way in winch it was piepared, packed, and sealed Most important in making good silage in conventional silos is adding an air-tight top seal aftei the silo is tilled The se lentists used a plastic ctner weighted with chopped, non wilted 'lorage Also impoitant are chopping the forage into also ’i-inch pieces, distribut ing it exenly in the silo, and sealing the silo doois with plastic, roofing paper, oi rub bei gaskets The experiment was con ducted by ARS dairy husband man ,f C Derbyshire and asso ciates and agricultural engineer J R. McCalmont at the Agri cultural Research Center, FJeltsyille Md The scientists filled one silo .is carefully as possible After each day’s load ot wilted, chop ped alfalta was added and tramped down, some non-wilt ed alfalfa was put on top to keep air from getting to the low-moisture silage When the silo was almost full, more non-wilted alfalfa was added Over this went the plastic cov er weighted with non-wilted. alfalfa. The second silo was filled Says , . . ‘chard Kreider ,D. 3, Manheim with only low-moisture alfalfa, then topped with non-wilted alfalfa and sealed like the first silo The silage and hay were kept stoied tor five months and then fed to the livestock. Compai isons ol milk yields, weight gams, div matter in take, and digestibility proved tha* silage iiom cither silo was as good 01 better than the hav Only 1 3 percent spoilage occurred in the carelully seal ed silo, more than 01 percent of the alfalfa that went into it was fed Spoilage was onh 3 percent in the other silo, and 95 per cent ol the ensiled forage was ted The scientists conclude from these results that it is unnecessary to add damp al falfa to the silo to prevent air damage to each day s load of low-moisture silage The alfalla used in the sil age tests was mowed, crushed, and windrow ed Then it waa chopped and ensiled a day or tw o before other alfalfa mow ed at the same time was ready to bale. • Broiler Advisory (Continued front!
