KOFA GRAIN -pH 5-
Patented preservative for high-
moisturegrain and grain maize
For excellent feed hygiene and high animal performance
KOFA GRAIN -pH 5- is a novel preservative containing sodium benzoate,
propionic acid and sodium propionate for the use in cereals and grain maize.
The unique, patented formulation makes it superior to other preservatives
in terms of efficacy and user-friendliness. Compared with the drying of
grain, the use of KOFA GRAIN -pH 5- offers significant cost benefits to the
