The production of silage film by Pudi considers the weather. The weather, in some way, also affects how effective the silage film can be. Learn a little more from the following on how silage film can get influenced by different types of weather.
Effect of Temperature on Silage Film
Temperature greatly influences the effect of silage films. The silage film will also become sticky and will not be easily manipulated in case of hot weather. Cold weather can make the silage film harden and snap, for instance. For this reason as well, we have to keep the silage film at temperature levels while using it on the farm.
Usage of Moisture in Silage Film
Another variable is moisture affecting the silage film performance. Too much moisture in the air makes the silage film wet and soggy and thereby does not work as well in keeping the silage fresh. On the other hand, when there is insufficient moisture, the silage film may dry and crack. Hence optimal moisture should be maintained while using silage film.
Wind and Silage Film
Wind has a dire impact on how silage film works. On windy days the silage film wraps around itself. Because of that, it can either tear or come off the silage. Do it mostly on a relatively calm day. This will guarantee that the silage film remains in position and does not allow lt spoilage of silage.
Covering Silage Film from Sun Rays
Ultraviolet rays from the sun are really harmful to silage film. After a while, these rays will degrade the silage film under the influence of heat, thereby diminishing its effectiveness in holding the silage. When unused, a very good way to protect this beautiful silage film from ultraviolet rays is to store it in cool, dark places. That helps it last longer and performs better when we need it.
Why We Have to Monitor the Weather
In a nutshell, the weather is very much crucial in the performance of silage films. Once farmers know how temperature, moisture, wind and UV rays affect the silage film, they have all it takes to maintain a fresh state of their silage. For optimal use of Pudi silage film, checking the weather from time to time shall help make the necessary changes. Farmers can ensure quality feed to livestock throughout the year using this approach.
