Common Questions
What size is this silage cover?
This roll is 18 metres wide by 50 metres long, in super heavy duty gauge. It's designed to suit larger pit sizes — check your pit dimensions to make sure it'll cover your setup.
Which way do I lay the cover on my silage pit?
Place it with the black layer facing down and the white layer facing up. The white side reflects sunlight and heat away from the pit, which reduces the chance of pit fires and helps minimise mould growth and spoilage under the cover.
How do I apply the cover properly?
After you've rolled and compacted your silage, force out as much air as possible from the pit to create an air tight seal. Then firmly secure all edges of the cover to prevent movement during storms and winds.
What makes this cover suitable for Australian conditions?
Pitcover is built with multi-layer film technology and is fully UV stabilised for long lasting performance in the harsh Australian climate. It comes with a 12 month guarantee against UV damage. The heavy duty thickness also provides strength and high resistance against punctures and tears.
Do I need anything else to make good silage?
Agri Novatex recommend using a silage preservative to ensure the correct numbers of beneficial bacteria are present. This helps maximise the speed of fermentation and reduce storage losses across all silage making methods — pits, bunkers, and bales.
