KOFASIL S
Heterofermentative bacterial preparation for improving the aerobic stability of silage
Perfectly hygienic silage for farm animals and biogas plants
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.
KOFASIL S stands for
Avoids feed and energy losses
Prevents mould growth and production of mycotoxins
Optimises biogas yield
Application
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.
Good to know
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.
