Silage is primarily used as livestock feed, particularly for ruminants like cows and sheep, during periods when fresh forage is scarce. It is made by fermenting green foliage crops in a controlled anaerobic environment, preserving their nutrients and moisture. Additionally, silage can improve the overall diet of animals, enhance milk production, and support weight gain in livestock. It also serves as a means of reducing waste by utilizing surplus forage that would otherwise go unharvested.
