Pretty sure you can't make silage out of straw

wrapped straw, think they might store longer? Im not sure.
But can you even wrapped straw with base game?

No. You can't. Only grass and chaff.

Wrapping Grass makes silage for animal feed or selling mkae sure u check that they are 100% fermented or the bale says SILAGE when u inspect it or it will sell as grass an u get less money so all that work down the drain, You can NOT wrap straw or hay, And is used for animal bedding on some of the bigger barns, Or selling direct

you can use the straw that shoots out from the wheat get into bales and wrap yes?

[Trien]

Grass can also be turned over and dry into straw so it can be baled. Just trying to determine value of straw vs grass for sillage value

Can't get silage from straw as it can't be wrapped or anything like that. Straw is just straw. Use it to make TMR or give direct to cows.

So you either can get silage from wrapping grass bales or chaff from corn. You can also take and empty grass into a bunker and ferment it that way as well. Just need to collect it using a forage wagon.

You can only create silage from Fresh products, like grass, corn etc. Straws are dry.
The silo bunker is great when you want to create a lot of silage or cant really store any bales.

Grass turned over is NOT Straw, its Hay.

The balers do have an option to chose between netting or foil as wrap. I have not tried yet, but if you have a baler with foil wrapping, can you not wrap hay then, even if hay does not ferment?

[kubanskiloewe]

no, the foil in the balers does only wrap a part of the bale to get it tight (picture upper left part far away).

What bothers me more is the fact that wraped gras bales do not turn into slage bales when storage them in this Mod shelter.
