IMPORTANT FOR HAYLAGE • "Every yoar some farm4;ts have problems with their Imylage =chiller!' gumming up" says Dr. Young, of the University. of Guelph. Crop Science Department. ,and these problems can be ser- ious. It can 'happen during In ."-'• vesing in the field. during the fil- ling operation at the silo, on even when the haylage is being, taken out of the silo, and it means ir- ritating stops lo unclog pipv... machinery. The problem increases with the percentage of alfalfa in the. forage mix." l'n.• Young explains that this. gumming problem occurs mostly with forage in the moisture range between 4a .and 55%-. To avoid gum. problems„ haylage should be harvested either wetter or drier than this range. The choice of castling above or below Ibis range lies with the individual farmer, He gives these guide lines to farmers: "If haylage harvesting Is going to involve large unatiti- ties of material and if the silo is going to be filled rapidly and -paeking going to be atdegnate, haylage can be made ni 'moisture levelS below the gumming range. ,So-eallodgas-tight silos work well far this kind of material. In all .cases it 'is wise to ent the material finely.
