ABSTRACT:
A horizontally-disposed silo for producing fodder comprising a trough structure having a generally U-shaped transverse cross-section and an inclined bottom; liquid and gas discharge means connected to the trough structure; the trough including a substantially semi-rigid flexible cover progressively removable from the trough and including sealing tongue elements of a resiliently flexible material received in a cooperating abutment surface in a substantially gas-tight manner to substantially seal off the silage-forming material in the silo and maintain it in a gas-tight relationship so that decomposition of the silage-forming material is substantially eliminated.
