"Bunker silos should be filled rapidly and quickly covered with uniformly weighted plastic. Silo covering is important to reduce loss of DM and quality in the top layers of silage. Special care should be taken when weighting the plastic to prevent billowing and the creation of a wind tunnel under the plastic. Also, care should be taken to avoid introducing soil into the feed during filling."
