Barn drying

Farmers sometimes forgo silage to conserve grass, influenced by cheese processing needs or a desire to reduce plastic use. This requires building drying facilities that ventilate fodder with heated air. Barn drying improves forage quality, allows for timely harvests, and minimizes leaf loss, making it a cost-effective alternative to dewatering units. However, it demands significant initial investment and specific harvesting equipment.

The system uses solar energy to heat air, drying forage quickly while maintaining its nutritional value.
