Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive guide to the siloing system, a method of preserving green, coarse fodder in a succulent condition for livestock. Although the practice has roots in antiquity, the author takes the reader on a journey of its development, with a particular focus on the silo's rise in the United States in the late 19th century. The book's focus is primarily on the use of silos to preserve Indian corn (maize), which is the American crop best suited for the purpose. Not only does the author explore the history and evolution of the silo, but they also detail the many advantages of the siloing system over other methods of preserving feed, such as its ability to preserve a larger quantity of food materials, reduce losses during curing, and provide a uniform, succulent feed for livestock throughout the year. They also discuss the relative costs and benefits of different silo types, such as rectangular, square, and cylindrical structures, made from materials like wood, brick, or cement. The book concludes by emphasizing the silo's significance as a valuable tool for modern agriculture, highlighting its role in increasing livestock productivity and efficiency, and its contributions to sustainable farming practices.
