Silos and Silage

There is nothing mysterious about ensilage, as this thoroughly practical book shows. It is a process for the practical farmer just as much as harvest or haymaking, and it by-passes some of the difficulties in other practice that the most experienced cannot always overcome. Illustrated with drawings, diagrams and black and white photographs, it also contains seven tables and a lengthy appendix. Contents Include: Silage and Farm Practice; Principles of Silage Making; Crops for Ensilage; Types of Silo; The Art of Making Silage; Feeding Silage to Stock; Cost of Production of Silage. This book contains classic material dating back to the 1900s and before. The content has been carefully selected for its interest and relevance to a modern audience.
