Bale Silage Sampler

The Grasstec Bale Silage Sampler is a durable sampling tool designed for taking representative core samples from baled silage for feed analysis.

Measuring 0.9 metres long, the sampler collects a 150mm silage sample with each use. Its compact size makes it practical for farmers, agricultural consultants and advisors who need a straightforward way to collect samples from silage bales before sending them for laboratory analysis.

Knowing the nutritional value of your silage is essential when planning winter diets. Silage analysis can provide information such as dry matter, protein and energy values, helping you understand the quality of the forage available and determine the level of concentrate supplementation required.

By testing silage before the main winter feeding period, farmers can make more informed feeding decisions, control concentrate costs and ensure livestock diets are matched to the quality of the silage available.

Key Features:

• Designed specifically for sampling baled silage.
• 0.9 metres long for practical handling and transport.
• Takes a 150mm sample with each use.
• Suitable for collecting samples for laboratory feed analysis.
• Simple, robust design for repeated farm use.
• Suitable for farmers, agricultural consultants and advisors.
• Helps determine the nutritional value of baled silage.
• Useful for planning livestock diets and winter feeding programmes.

Why Test Your Silage?

Silage can form a major part of a livestock diet throughout the winter, so understanding its feed value can help you:

• Accurately assess forage quality for the winter period.
• Determine dry matter, protein and energy levels.
• Develop a more accurate winter feeding plan.
• Calculate concentrate supplementation requirements.
• Avoid unnecessary concentrate feeding where silage quality is high.
• Support animal performance.
• Identify potential feed-quality issues early.
• Better manage winter feeding costs.
• Improve overall farm efficiency and profitability.

How to Use:

Insert the Bale Silage Sampler into the bale to collect a core sample. Each use takes approximately 150mm of silage. Once removed from the bale, use a suitable tool such as a screwdriver to carefully push the silage sample from the sampler into a clean container.

Take sufficient representative samples as required and send the combined sample for laboratory analysis.
