Silage is fermented, high moisture stored fodder, which is used to feed dairy/livestock and other animals in dry season.
In order to preserve & protect silage nutrients from field losses as well as to promote dairy/livestock sector by facilitating the farming community to provide loans for establishment of silage units to overcome the fodder shortage during scarcity/dry season for their animals, the Bank has launched the captioned scheme for the farming community.
