Fresh produce of every type, hay and corn silage for the dairy farmers,
Silage is a type of fermented stored animal fodder that is used to feed cows and sheep. It is used by farmers because the fermenting process gives the fodder a nutritional benefit over hay or grass.
Farmers typically use several areas to provide feed for their animals, including pastures, hay fields, and silage storage areas. Pastures are used for grazing, while hay fields are harvested and stored for winter feeding. Silage is made from fermented green fodder and stored in silos or bags to provide a nutritious feed source. Additionally, farmers may also use designated feeding areas or troughs to manage and distribute feed efficiently.
