Green fodder harvest

Forage harvesting is an important work step on a farm. The collection of the forage and subsequent processing is a demanding task, the efficiency and yield of which have a direct impact on the success of a farm. If the green fodder harvest is not given the necessary attention, yield losses are accepted. A lack of green fodder can put the entire farm in an economic imbalance, as this has further consequences for milk production, for example.

High responsibility for green fodder harvesting

The quality of the forage harvest also has a direct impact on the welfare and health of the livestock. For this reason, professional farms are increasingly turning to innovative and reliable mowing technology for forage harvesting, such as that offered by ESM for decades. As no two farms or harvest years are the same, the mowing situation must be analysed before every green fodder harvest. In particular, the question of which mowing technique to use is of great importance. An incorrectly selected mowing technique can significantly worsen the harvest result of the forage crop. In addition to the size of the area to be mowed, the nature of the terrain, the type of crop to be mowed and the accessibility of the green fodder harvest must also be taken into account. Mowers with cutting units from Ennepetaler Schneid- und Mähwerke are used in green forage harvesting when professional mowing results are required. ESM's oscillating mowing technology covers all areas of forage harvesting.
