The Big Foot is available in four different sizes ranging from 3,680 to 11,920 pounds making it ideal for any size operation. When fully loaded, it provides over 50 psi pressure per roller to pack the feed thoroughly and efficiently. Our Big Foot Forage Packer is compatible with with most silage bunker designs, providing exceptional compression of feed between the silage pit walls for optimal storage and quality.
Andrew Rickert of Eldorado, Wisconsin is in his 6th year using the Big Foot Forage Packer. Rickert says, “the Big Foot gives us better compaction than other packers we’ve used. We get a nice, solid pack and are able to fit more feed in our bunkers. We are bringing in semi after semi of silage and the packer is a necessity to sustain proper density.”
