Silage Additive

Precision Microbes Silage €98 at whyteagri.ie The ensiling of grass is the main method of forage conservation employed in Ireland. This involves a controlled microbial fermentation of your harvested crop. Preserving your silage is largely dependent on the actions of lactic acid forming bacteria (LAB) in an anaerobic environment. Precision Microbes’ silage additive is a ready-to-use means of delivering live homofermentative LAB species into your silage clamp and bales. Key Features: Liquid Formulation Ready-To-Use Product Live Bacterial Agents Homofermentation Drives A Quick pH Drop Apply Using Standard Or Ultra Low Dosing Irish Based Biome Company Organic Certified DAFM Approved How It Works: Live Microbial Agents A high concentration of live bacteria ensures immediate effectiveness, especially in anaerobic conditions like wrapped bales or sealed clamps. These beneficial microbes out-compete harmful bacteria from the start. Drives A Rapid Decline In pH Homofermentative LAB quickly convert grass sugars into high levels of lactic acid, dropping pH fast. They’re twice as efficient at using glucose—and six times more efficient with fructose—than heterofermenters*, locking in an efficient and effective fermentation. Nutrient Preservation Homofermenters limit DM losses and protein breakdown associated with poor silage fermentation, preserving silage quantity and feed value while reducing risk of unpalatability and toxic end products. Voluntary Dry Matter Intakes Efficient fermentation improves silage taste, encouraging dry matter intake which reduces feed waste caused by poor-quality, unpalatable silage. Dose Rates: Ultra Low dose: 100ml per tonne Ready to use Standard dose: 1-2l per tonne 10% (1L pm + 9l water)
