Silage Analysis

Analyse your Silage to Maximise Production

Before planning winter rations analyse your silages as nutrient quality can be variable year on year. Regular analysis throughout the silage feeding period is advised, this allows for accurate formulation of the diet.
Even when silage is clamped to the highest standards, changes occur during storage throughout the winter feeding period, whether we are looking at grass silage, maize or even wholecrop - and that is before we even consider the variations in different fields or cutting dates.

This analysis is for grass silage, maize silage and wholecrop only. For analysis of other forages please contact the office on 01458 851555.
