What Makes Dasan Silage, A Premium Quality Silage?
Dasan Feeds is one of the most innovative and top livestock companies with a single goal to provide high quality nutrition to dairy and beef animals. Now Dasan Feeds is producing & promoting baled Silage as a solution for fodder shortage in Pakistan. Dasan Feeds is involved in end-to-end process of silage making right from sowing of its own crop till the delivery of silage bales to dairy farmers.
During the silage making process, we cut the crop when it contains the highest nutrient levels. This level is attained just before they are fully mature.
The reason why it is cut just before they are fully mature is that the silage, will have lower amounts of nutrients than fresh pasture, so everything must be done to make the end product be as nutritious as possible.
During Dasan silage preparation, we ensure the required level of crop moisture level. Our high efficient harvesters and silage balers chop the crop in required chop size and then compress to eject the oxygen more efficiently
This is important because the microorganisms especially, lactic acid bacteria, grow best under anaerobic (oxygen-free) conditions.
When oxygen remains, plant enzymes and other bacteria react with the plant sugars and proteins to make energy, thus reducing the amount of nutrients in the final product.
After the fermentation process is done and once all of the oxygen is used up, lactic acid bacteria start to multiply. These are the bacteria that are needed to make the silage. They play a key role in turning the plant sugars into lactic acid causing the pH to drop (mixture becomes more acidic). Once the pH is around 4-5, the sugars stop breaking down and the grass is preserved until the silage is opened and exposed to oxygen.
