[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7938176, member: 86168"] we put extra wrap on as well, and try to make it as dry as possible, then it does keep. Our contractor is always saying, farmers ask for least wrap, and don't let it dry a bit, result, saggy bales that are difficult to move, and wont last much more than a year, but that's their choice. We will have a large surplus of fodder this year, for a massive change. Our 'salvation' for the last few years, has been double cropping rye/vetches and maize, with very heavy yields, 30 ton fresh weight per acre, and that rye/vetch has provided the base ration for the winter. We are only just getting back to it ! 10 weeks time, cows should be out. [/QUOTE]
