Programme: All

Radoslava Stancheva Rogova-Stefanova is a registered farmer. Its main activity is the breeding of dairy cattle and cultivation of agricultural land for fodder production.
The present project proposal is applied for under sub-measure 19.2-4.1 "Investments in agricultural holdings" of the Strategy for Rural Development of the Association MIG Dobrichka, financed under the Program for the Development of Rural Areas 2014 - 2020.
The subject of the project is a continuation of the modernization process of the applicant's farm, by purchasing and putting into operation a new modern machine for filling and storing roughage, and composting manure in polyethylene sleeves. The value of the investment costs in the project proposal is BGN 112,600.00 excluding VAT.
With the help of the machine, polyethylene sleeves are filled with corn silage, haylage or other fodder.
The method of storing silage in polyethylene sleeves or sacks is most effective in preserving its quality throughout the period until the next harvest. The percentage of losses in this option is almost reduced to zero.
The quality of the silage remains the same throughout the entire storage period, which in practice is up to 1 year. Mechanization is kept to a minimum, as are the personnel involved in the silage process.
The advantages of this method of silage storage are:
High aerobic stability;
Better possibility to dose silage additives during ensiling;
Protection against the impact of side metal and other objects;
High quality of silage throughout the storage period;
Precise preparation of the land for ensiling is not necessary;
No concrete base or walls required;
