Green fodder harvesting season begins

First on the list are winter cole and rye, crops rich in protein and fiber. At the same time, they are easy to store. Once brought in from the fields, the green crop is immediately laid in silage pits. This technology has shown good results. The cole and rye are not even tamped down with any heavy machinery. Due to the high humidity, the crops compact under their own weight. At the same time, specialists monitor the temperature of the pit, preventing overheating. No more than a week is allotted for harvesting winter cole. Immediately after mowing, the fields are plowed up and prepared for sowing corn on the green fresh. This way one site yields two crops of high-quality feed per season.
