Bowes Construction, Inc. proudly completed an asphalt silage pad for Plainview Dairy near Toronto, South Dakota, showcasing our expertise in delivering durable and high-quality agricultural infrastructure solutions. The project involved application of premium hot-mix asphalt to create a robust, low-maintenance surface tailored to the dairy’s silage storage needs. Designed to withstand heavy equipment traffic and harsh environmental conditions, the silage pad ensures efficient silage storage and handling, enhancing the dairy’s silage storage and reducing pile loss.
Asphalt silage pads are an ideal choice for dairies due to their durability, ease of maintenance, and resistance to the corrosive effects of silage leachate. Unlike traditional concrete or gravel surfaces, asphalt provides a smooth, impermeable barrier that minimizes spoilage and simplifies cleaning, supporting optimal feed preservation and farm efficiency. At Bowes Construction, we leverage our decades of experience in asphalt production and paving to deliver customized solutions that meet the unique demands of agricultural facilities like Plainview Dairy, ensuring long-term performance and cost-effectiveness.
