A Stretch Tube With a Memory The Lastic Tube® system is a stretch tube with a memory. Lastic Tubes® are some of the fastest, most economical, convenient, and reliable ways to produce baled silage. The system provides a practical way to improve the palatability of soft textured baled silage. This nutritious and digestible feed is especially beneficial when back grounding calves, while also helping to reduce bloat and other digestive problems. Save Feed Over Dry Hay A study conducted by Manitoba Agriculture compared dry hay and baled silage and found a 25% feed savings by using a baled silage feed system. There is less waste associated with baled silage compared to dry hay. Baled silage is readily adaptable to most dry hay systems (such as round bale feeders) and can be unrolled in the field with less leaf loss than dry hay. Chopping and feeding from the Lastic Tube® is also an option.
Features & Benefits:
One of the fastest, most efficient ways to protect and ensile hay and cereal forages of all types, our tube can be used with round or large square bale systems.
Bales for silage can be put up at higher moisture, between 40% and 60%, reducing leaf loss and weather delays.
Because of its unique formulation, the strong, tear resistant Lastic Tube® automatically shrinks down tight against the bale. This eliminates oxygen and creating an airtight environment for fermentation to produce the highest quality silage and keep it that way until required.
It is designed to withstand the harsh North American climate and warranted for 12 months against manufacturer’s defects.* *Subject to terms and conditions
