Armagh-based manufacturer, MDE Machinery displayed its Rhino Pak silage compactor alongside its tree shears, silage forks and recently launched NextGen dumper range.
The Rhino Pak silage compactor is designed to improve forage fermentation by eliminating air as a result of increased forage compaction. Increased compaction also improves the capacity of the pit.
While common for many years in most European countries, the popularity of forage compactors is increasing in Ireland and the UK.
