Feeding is one of the biggest investments on any Irish farm, so making sure every kilo of silage and meal is used effectively can have a major impact on both performance and profitability. Siloking diet feeders are designed around that principle. Their consistent mixing, accurate weighing and even feed-out help farmers deliver a balanced ration with far less waste — meaning the feed you’ve worked hard to produce goes exactly where it should.
Siloking’s vertical auger system blends the ration thoroughly, ensuring the same quality of mix from one end of the feed passage to the other. Cows receive a uniform diet without sorting, and farmers typically notice cleaner feed passages and far less leftover material at the end of the day. With less variation in the ration, herds respond with steadier intakes, better utilisation of forage and improved overall efficiency.
The benefits extend beyond just the feed barrier. Quicker mixing times, easier handling and fast, controlled feed-out all contribute to smoother, more efficient daily routines. Over a season, farmers can see meaningful savings in feed, fuel and time — while also reducing the environmental impact associated with wasted forage and concentrates.
Siloking feeders are built to suit Irish farming systems, from compact trailed machines for smaller operations to high-capacity self-propelled units for larger herds. Strong engineering, simple controls and dependable performance make them a long-term investment that supports better results year after year.
By helping farmers get more from every load of feed, Siloking plays a genuine role in running a more efficient, sustainable and profitable farm. It’s a practical way to cut waste, improve herd performance and make daily feeding easier.
Designed for Irish Yards and Irish-Scale Operations
Siloking TrailedLine feeders are designed to handle the realities of Irish yards, offering high manoeuvrability and easy pulling even in tight, confined spaces. Their compact dimensions make them ideal for older farm layouts with narrow passages or limited turning room, while still delivering excellent transport capacity for larger feeding routines. Across the range, farmers can expect homogeneous, consistently mixed rations and precise, controlled discharge, all backed by strong operational reliability.
The lineup stretches from the well-engineered Classic models — straightforward, durable and built around core Siloking qualities — right up to the more advanced Series 4.0 high-performance machines, designed for farms where maximum efficiency, productivity and throughput are essential. This flexibility allows farmers to choose a feeder that matches their herd size, yard layout and daily feeding demands without compromising on mix quality or reliability.
