I. How to Choose a Straw Chopper for Large Farms?

• Prioritize 380V three-phase power for strong power, no motor burnout, and long continuous operation. 220V cannot support high output.
• Must be high-output and high-power: typically 5.5kW / 7.5kW / 11kW / 15kW or larger, matched to daily feed consumption.
• Must have automatic chain feeding or forced drum feeding to save labor, improve efficiency and enhance safety.
• Prioritize integrated chopping and rubbing machine for finer, softer feed, less waste, higher absorption rate and better fattening effect.
• The machine body should feature a thickened, heavy frame, durable cutter head and bearings to withstand heavy-duty, long-hour work.
• Capable of processing various materials: corn stalks, wheat straw, rice straw, silage, forage grass, peanut seedlings, etc.

II. Appropriate Output for Large Farms

• About 50 cattle/sheep, daily feed ≈ 250kg → choose 0.5–1 ton/hour
• About 100 cattle/sheep, daily feed ≈ 750kg → choose 1–2 tons/hour
• About 200 cattle/sheep, daily feed ≈ 2000kg → choose 2–3 tons/hour
• Large-scale farms with 500+ cattle/sheep, daily feed over 5000kg → choose large silage chopper with 5–10 tons/hour

III. Buying Summary for Large Farms

• Voltage: 380V three-phase
• Power: above 5.5kW
• Structure: automatic feeding + integrated chopping and rubbing
• Output: 1–10 tons/hour, selected based on herd size
• Purpose: long-term, high-intensity, large-volume feed processing
