He has such a great knowledge and freely puts it across in a lovely manner, I can’t wait for Sunday’s chat - it should be very entertaining and informative.

    Hello Tom. I dont understand why you dont put sand bags or exstra tyres on the end and on the sides of the silo pit. Here in Denmark we put 3 layers of plastic and sand bags on the sides and on the ends of the silo pit, and we have no waste, and really good quality. Sorry for my english. Great video!;)

    @@kylefox6318 not really, he mentions he always has waste at the corners and end/start of the clamp, in the Netherlands we do it the same as agri videos DK, we have 1 clear layer and sheets at the sides to the ground which get covered with the silage and the closed over the clear plastic, after that we use 1 more layer all the way over. We use sandbags al around the edges for an airtight seal and sometimes a double layer, after that tires on top not completely full. Spending 2 hours more on an clamp is worth it in so many ways, first of all you had to cut all the grass, then ted and rake it, have it go through the forager and the clamped, that cost money as well and if you spend the hours while clamping you dont have to do in the winter opening it. Sometimes we let the slurry tank suck air out of the clamp when we think it has a lot of air in it the next day.

    I am a bit confused on how this thing was constructed, dont you put an extra layer on top of the feed to prevent the mold from reaching it? Here on own farm we usually add a layer off "pulp" (dont know the english word sorry) that is about 10 cm orso. The cows eat the pulp even when moldy so its a lot easier. P.s. pulp is the dried remains of suggar beets from after they are processed
