Hay granulator – a machine that allows you to compress hay into compact granules, which are subsequently used for animal feed and other needs. In addition to hay, the equipment processes straw, husks, sawdust, and is used for granulating feed from cereals. Therefore, buying a hay granulator means acquiring a universal unit that can be used in various formats for agricultural and industrial needs.
Hay granulators - why bale straw?
Looking at the range, you will see that each hay granulator has a different price. It depends on the parameters of the equipment - power (1.5 kW - 37 kW and more), matrix size (100 mm - 1 meter), output (40 kg /h - 500 kg /h). Choose your option regarding these characteristics so that the price of straw pelletizer matches the parameters and your needs.
What is the use of granulators:
- Pressing reduces the volume of production, requires less space allocated for the conservation of recycled raw materials.
- The nutritional value of the product increases, the percentage of digestibility of feed by animals increases.
- The preservation of carotene in the hay is increased (with standard conservation, the destruction of carotene occurs 15-20% faster).
- The bale keeps the forage clean, reduces waste by 15%, which reduces the cost of buying hay.
- The production process is fully controlled, the owner himself makes sure that rotten and old raw materials and unwanted herbs do not go into the pressing.
- You can make a mix, get mixed feed according to your own recipe, introduce nutrients and medicinal components, form feed according to the age of animals or seasonality.
- Pellets do not create dust, unlike hay, do not cause allergic reactions in animals and workers.
- For convenient feeding on farms, they make conveyors with the supply of granules; hay cannot be fed in this way.
- The duration of storage in granules is longer than in bales, sheaves. The granules are less sensitive to moisture.
- Granular grass is better digested, which reduces the amount of manure and reduces the frequency of harvesting.
Tips for using pressing equipment
If you decide to buy a hay granulator, you should also think about a chopper, without it it will not be possible to prepare the grass for pressing. To make hay granules of high quality, cereals or legumes are added to them.
It is important to choose the right equipment to get the desired performance. Select the machine according to the planned loads. Buy a quality tool that will pay off in a short period.
