Roman saw the increasing number of livestock younglings and knew that they couldn't do without a large amount of fresh fodder in the future.
At this time, silage was the only choice.
Fodder stored this way could still provide rich nourishment for the livestock in winter, was high in sugar content, easy to absorb, and improved digestion.
From a human perspective, this method was akin to the difference between raw meat and grilled meat, and grilled meat could be stored for a longer period.
Roman needed to harvest the grass massively with scythes when the growth was at its peak, use the chopper made by Lax to shred it, and finally store it in a cellar to ferment.
Grass alone was not enough.
Roman would also turn five hundred acres of soybean stalks and green beans into silage to meet all the livestock's fodder needs during winter and early spring.
The previous method of free-range and grazing wasn't suitable for large-scale breeding.
