bunker silo

Collapsing silage from large bunker silos has caused deaths.

Bunker silos are trenches, usually with concrete walls, that are filled and packed with tractors and loaders.

Three types of silos are in widespread use today - tower silos, bunker silos and bag silos.

Ground-level bunker silos carry none of the hazards outlined above, and need only a standard tractor/loader to feed out with, and no specialized machinery.

I know that if given the chance, I would climb back in the tractor seat, dehorn dairy calves or pack silage in a bunker silo.

Products include bunker silos, cattle feed bunks, cattle grid, agricultural fencing, H-bunks, J-bunks, livestock slats, livestock watering trough, feed troughs, concrete panels, slurry channels, and more.

While the iconic blue Harvestore low-oxygen silos were once very common, the speed of its unloader mechanism was not able to match the output rates of modern bunker silos, and this type of silo went into decline.
