The best forage quality is the basis for your success High-yield livestock need a high quality basic ration. Ruminants are fussy about their forage. The quality of their basic ration will determine whether your animals consume the forage in high quantities, or not. In addition to energy content, digestibility, odour and taste, a low crude ash content plays a decisive role. What they like most is basic ration that is clean and tasty. The amount of concentrates used can be reduced. This cuts forage costs while at the same time improving animal health. Healthy livestock reward you with higher fertility,...

Clean and tidy conditioning The best silage quality In order to keep the energy content of the crop as high as possible, fast and gentle drying is required. Using a conditioner facilitates the release of cell juice in the clamp. This results in faster pH value reduction. What this means is that the silage reaches a stable state more quickly. When mowing with a conditioner, you save one thing above all else: time. The tines or rollers integrated into the mower fold or crimp the crop and place a wide and loose forage carpet, the best prerequisites for a fast drying process. “On high yield forage...
