Silage Gas
Once again it is silo filling

urged to 1. Watch out for yellow
brown fumes in or near the silo.
2. Be alert to bleach -like odors
at the silo. 3, Clear out of the
area if your throat gets irritated,
or coughing begins, or if you feel
sick.
Any of these could mean there
is deadly silo gas present. The
gas comes from fermentation of
crops high in nitrogen. Crops
may have a high nitrogen content

hail or other causes as well as
excess nitrogen fertilizer being
used. Silo gas consists of nitrogen
oxides and carbon dioxide and is
dangerous to all kinds of animals.
Not only can it kill quickly and
unexpectedly, but also it can
cause permanent damage to lungs.
Relapses may occur in people who
have apparently recovered from
exposure to the gas. In every case
of exposure to the gas, check
with your doctor immediately.
The greatest danger period
from silo gas is during silo filling
and for a considerable period
afterward - like 10 days. The gas
is heavier than air and will stay
close to the silage surface in the
