SiloSolve AS – the biological silage additive for aerobic stability and improved fermentation

Aerobic challenges during feed-out

When exposed to air—such as during feed-out—silage can heat up spontaneously. Moulds and yeasts are fungi that grow rapidly in the presence of oxygen and produce heat in the process. Nutrients are broken down and feed palatability is reduced. In addition to nutrient losses, this can lead to reduced feed intake and consequently lower milk yield. Energy-rich feeds such as maize are more prone to this type of heating than other silages.

SiloSolve AS improves aerobic stability

SiloSolve AS contains two fast-growing, dominant lactic acid bacteria and a unique Lentilactobacillus buchneri strain. This specific combination of bacterial strains improves fermentation and reduces the growth of yeasts and moulds, resulting in extended aerobic stability during feed-out: up to 6 days for maize silage and 3 days for difficult-to-ensile grass and legume silages.

SiloSolve AS improves fermentation

The fast starter and strong acid-tolerant “finisher” lactic acid bacteria in SiloSolve AS improve silage quality. In high-quality forages such as alfalfa and grass/legume mixtures, SiloSolve AS reduces ammonia levels by up to 36% and ethanol levels by up to 50%. In easily ensiled forages, it reduces ammonia by up to 18% and ethanol by up to 33%.
