Creating sufficient fodder stocks for years with low yields and small fodder stock units

Comentarios sobre la sostenibilidad

Fodder from good years is stored as a reserve for years with low yields, e.g. years with long summer drought, very wet years. It is useful to have a fodder reserve of up to 20%. The investment in storage facilities is paid off in years with high fodder prices and low availability. A portioning into small units, such as silage bales or hay, help to overcome times of low fodder availability in summer without having the need to open a big silo.
