• Filling should be rapid and it should be completed within two days or less.
• For creating anaerobic condition inside the silo, the forages should be compressed while filling.
• Never fill a silo when it is raining.
• Distribute forage uniformly in the silo

Sealing

• For maintaining the silo anaerobic, it is must to stop the entry of atmospheric air inside the silo.
• This is done by leveling the top and tramp the last few feet, especially near the walls.
• Covering the top by using any type of insulator like mud, plastic.
• For bunker or trench silo apply sufficient load on top to facilitate compactness.
