After a storage of approximately three months, the bales were opened and evaluated. Samples were taken from different layers. A rough estimate of losses showed that damaged wrapping films caused higher DM losses, irrespective of baler type (table 1). In addition, the silage directly surrounding the upper holes was of poor quality. Part of it was completely rotten and mould infections were observed as deep as 30 cm. Also the silage around the lower holes turned mouldy but in this case, the oxygen inflow affected only a very limited area. The more densly bales are pressed, the better the silage quality. As a result of air flow, damaged stretch-films have a higher impact on silage quality when using the baler with a fixed press chamber and a sideways storage compared to balers with a variable press chamber.
