Maize almost ready for harvesting on Godney Moor
While much of this remote moor is pasture, there are fields of maize grown for cattle fodder. The combine harvester will cut the complete plants, chop them, and the resulting fodder will be silaged (in a pit, silo or in round bales) and stored until needed in winter.
