HOW TO USE UREA TO MAKE DRY MAIZE STALK SILAGE
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Dry maize stalk silage making.
Making silage from drought-stressed crops often is a good way to safen these feeds. Usually the fermentation process will reduce its nitrate content.
However, during the first few days of early fermentation, the chopped forage begins to heat, converting those nitrates first into nitrites. And, nitrites are as much as 10 times more poisonous to cattle than nitrates. Later, these nitrites are neutralized and converted into other compounds that are less toxic.
If you feed your freshly chopped forage before it has completed its full fermentation cycle, you risk giving your cattle a highly poisonous forage filled with nitrites. To avoid this, wait three or four weeks after chopping before feeding fresh silage. Then, test your silage for nitrates before feeding.

Video quality is a notch higher but content is dangerous for us digital farmers especially on the use of urea.I hope viewers take the disclaimer seriously otherwise as stated the use of urea can be a disaster
