Zusammenfassung:	A system and related method of applying forage treatment material to harvested forage is provided. The method can include harvesting forage, rotating a flexible auger in a bin and in a curved or angled part of a tube to convey a granular treatment material toward harvested forage moving in a chute to mix the material with the harvested forage. The system can include a flexible auger having a helical blade that extends around an auger central passageway. The auger rotates and augers the granular treatment material with the blade out of the bin. The auger can extend into a curved portion of the tube, taking on a curved configuration extending into the curved portion so that the auger extends along a curvilinear axis and includes a curvilinear portion that is rotationally constrained in the tube.
