silage (sh)




or ensilage

Forage plants such as corn, legumes, and grasses that have been harvested at early maturity, finely chopped, packed tightly to exclude air, and stored in tower silos, pits, or trenches.

Properly stored silage ferments slightly and keeps for several months. It is used as animal feed.
