I guess, But are you sure you want to do that? Unless you fill fast and pack well all you are going to have is a bunch of spoiled feed that you are going to have to pitch out by hand and spread on your fields.
If you can make good feed and have an outlet for it (even if you have to give it away)it wouldn't be hard to build a silo. My dad built one using tougue and groove fir in the early 60s. We always had trouble with spoilage around the door-front. We tore down a Unidilla silo in the 70s and saved the door-front for years til the shed it was in blew away in a tornado. Surely there are a few left standing but they are getting real scarce.I would think someone tearing down a concrete silo would have lots of hoops. Let me know if you decide to do something. I am fascinated with old barns.
