KOFASIL FQM

Homofermentative inoculant for improving fermentation quality in silage.

Image

ECPS is the key

Image

KOFASIL FQM is an inoculant containing an ECPS forming strain of the lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus plantarum). 

ECPS are muscus forming substances which enclose the bacteria and protect it against adverse environment impacts and supports for nutrient and moisture uptake.

Better nutrient aquisition

Better growth of the LAB strain better silages

Effects

Image

The use of KOFASIL FQM results in silage crops (e.g. grass, legumes plants) in an intensive lactic acid formation which drops the pH value quickly and significantly. 

This inhibits the development of undesirable harmful bacteria such as clostridia, stops proteolysis and reduces DM- and energy-losses. 

Treating forage crops with KOFASIL FQM results in high-energy, nutrient-rich silage that is perfectly hygienic and is ideal for feeding to high-performance cattle.

Ready to use


KOFASIL FQM is mixed with tap water and can be used immediately.
The product is suited for microdosing (20-50ml/t). For optimum distribution we recommend an application amount between 1.0 and 2.0 litres per tonne of silage crop.
