On Silage Making

Abstract

Silage making is the art of preserving green fodder in a succulent state for a considerable length of time. It is usually a provision against green-fodder scarcity during summer. During the hot weather in parts where irrigation facilities are not on hand to enable fodder crops like cholam, maize, etc., to be grown owing to the absence of wells or water in tanks, the only way in which a farmer can manage to feed his stock with succulent material is by having recourse to silage.
