Silage Density Better
When Distributor Used
Silage density will be more
uniform, the silo unloader will
opeiate smoother and 10-20%
moie tonnage can be stored in
a silo 20 feet in diameter or
larger when a distributor is
used Proper distribution also
makes moisture content moie
uniform and prevents the wet
and dry zones that can occur
in low moistuie silage
Seveial types of distributors
are being used The blower
pipe distributor turns from
side to side and blows the
silage across the silo Another
distributor used is a silo un
loader which is reversed to
cairy chopped forage outward
iiom the silo center where it
has been deposited by a filler
pipe A deflector distributor
driven by an electric motor
also is used, and will work
well until the silo is almost
full.
Some of the saddest stories
