KOFASIL S contains a specially selected non-GM strain of the lactic acid

bacteria Lactobacillus buchneri. In addition to lactic acid, this also forms

a certain amount of acetic acid which inhibits yeasts and moulds, which

improves the storage life of silage kept in non-airtight conditions where

heating on exposure could occur without the use of additives

This particularly affects well-fermented, high-energy silo maize, but silage

made of grass and whole cereal plants may also display signs of heating on

exposure. Ensiling mistakes such as poor compaction, ensiling forage that

has been harvested late, or insufficient turnover increase the risk of such

processes. This can be avoided by applying good farming practices and

using KOFASIL S.

Avoids feed and energy losses

Prevents mould growth and production of mycotoxins

Optimises biogas yield

KOFASIL S is mixed with tap water and can be used immediately. 

We recommend a dose of at least 0.5 litres of bacterial solution per tonne of silage crop.

For optimum distribution we recommend applying between 1.0 and 2.0 litres per tonne of silage crop.

KOFASIL S can be used for silage made from maize, whole crop maize, CCM, whole crop cereals and grass.

The use of KOFASIL S increases the value of your silage. The hygienic quality and the CO2 balance are improved.

KOFASIL S is DLG certified.
