Forage Boxes

Foster build forage boxes for all applications in three different sizes:

600 Series: 6’ 3” Wide – 6m³ capacity

750 Series: 7’ 6” wide – 7.5m³ capacity

990 Series: 7’ 6” wide – 9.9m³ capacity


All our forage boxes are designed for easy use with logical controls sensibly placed. We incorporate proven components within a high build quality for a durable unit that will provide long term reliability.

The fourteen model range offers the farmer one of the most comprehensive range of trailed silage feeders on the market today.  From the ‘S’ series – single discharge feeders with mechanically driven cross conveyor, to the ‘D’ series with variable speed control of both floor and cross conveyor thus enabling silage to be placed exactly where it is required.  Also available are the ‘RS’ and ‘RSN’ models with a hydraulically driven split cross conveyor that can feed to both sides at the same time at the rear, with the ‘RSN’ having 6” shorter cross conveyors to give greater clearance in narrow passageways.

Standard Features:

 User friendly hydraulics with reversible hydraulically driven floor and variable speed control – all from the tractor seat
 Tanalised long life ‘rot resistant’ timber floor and sides, with top guard rail to minimise loader impact on sides and top hinged rear tailgate
