Feed and commodity storage in North Florida

Feed and commodity storage in North Florida: what to know

Feed is money, and rain, sun and rodents eat into it. Feed and commodity storage puts hay, bagged feed and bulk ingredients in enclosed or three-sided bays, placed where a truck can unload and a tractor can load out without driving through the pens. Push walls of concrete or heavy steel let a loader scoop against them. Separate the feed from the animals with gates or a wall, keep it on a dry floor, and vent the roof so moisture doesn't build up over stored hay.
