OSHKOSH, Wis. – March 7, 2016 – PRLog — What free-admission trade show features more than 700 booths, over 400 vendors, draws visitors from Wisconsin, Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Minnesota, Illinois and Canada, includes a centrally located tent offering a wide selection of food, provides seminars on energy-efficient equipment and techniques and even has a Kiddie Tractor Pull (on Wednesday at 1:00 p.m.)? If you guessed the 56th Annual WPS Farm Show being held at the EAA Grounds in Oshkosh Wisconsin, March 29-31, 2016, give yourself a pat on the back! If you’ve already made plans to be there, we salute you! You’ve made a wise decision.
Now make another one: when you get there head straight for booth A-3570. That’s where you’ll find Tire Sidewall Depot, the business that’s in the business of helping to ensure your livestock – and your bottom line – benefit from the most nourishing silage there is. Sometimes large bunker silos are left unsealed since covering them is cumbersome, labor intensive and believed not to be worth the time and effort required. Nothing could be further from the truth. Left unprotected, dry matter (DM) losses in the top one to three feet can exceed 60% to 70%; which is really problematic given that the heftiest portion of the silage most often lies within those top three feet. What’s more, your dairy cows are at risk of being malnourished (and providing less and lower-quality milk). Depending on silo size, losses can add up to $10,000 and more.
Taking the time and making the effort to seal silage with overlapping silage covers and 100% nylon bias ply truck-tire sidewalls will go a long way in helping to prevent that problem. It provides a barrier to help keep out contaminants such as oxygen and rain, and helps eliminate exposure to such breeders of disease as rusting metal (prevalent with the use of radial sidewalls) and stagnant water (which can accumulate when working with whole tires), thereby protecting immeasurably against vermin, pathogens and insects such as West Nile-carrying mosquitoes.
The company has been successfully serving the agricultural industry since 1995 by filling the need for safer, more efficient bunker silo coverage. With several strategically located facilities across North America, Tire Sidewall Depot delivers across the nation, assuring exceptionally competent, friendly and reliable service. And, for more than five decades, the WPS Farm Show has provided an opportunity for the agricultural community to check out the latest farming equipment, machinery, tools and services. Don’t let this one pass you by. Visit booth A-3570 at the 56th Annual WPS Farm Show at EAA Grounds, 1001 Waukau Ave., Oshkosh; March 29-31, 2016, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday; 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday.
