It's called silage, and it's not pickled, but fermented. In order to make silage, you have to have the feed compressed enough so that you're sure no air pockets are in the feed, then cover it up with plastic, not allowing any spaces under the plastic or even holes in the plastic. You could weigh it down with tires, bales or anything else heavy that can be spared to keep the silage on. Then leave it be for a few weeks to ferment before you feed it to cattle. The best plants for silage is barley, grass (with very little legumes), wheat, corn, and oats.
