SiloStop helps preserve bunker silage piles

Keith Bolsen of Silo Stop talks about protecting silage piles at World Dairy Expo, Oct. 4, 2012.

The biggest enemy of bunker silage piles is waste. The greater amount of silage exposed to the elements, the less usable silage is available as feed. Keith Bolsen provides tech support for a product called SiloStop that he says is an oxygen barrier protecting silage from waste. “SiloStop film keeps oxygen away from the surface of a bunker pile of forage, corn silage, alfalfa haylage, high moisture corn, earlage, and it protects that stored feed from oxygen and deterioration over time due to infiltration of air into the silage mass,” Bolson told Brownfield Ag News, at World Dairy Expo.
