The silage method
Choose the right harvest time for grasses, corn, etc. to have the highest nutritional content (you can call us for advice)
Chop the tree to 1 - 3 cm in size, puree for agricultural by-products
Put the product in bags or compost pits, each layer is from 10 to 20 cm, each layer is watered with a solution of silage yeast combined with starch and molasses.
Vacuum the mixture or compact it to push all the air out
Anaerobic incubation, after about 10-15 days (fermentation depends on many factors including temperature)
Silage corn can be stored for long-term use up to 1 year
