Bacterial inoculant for Enhanced Fermentation Effective fermentation is of utmost importance in producing high-quality silage. Lowering the pH as quickly as possible is key in maintaining nutrient value as well as creating the proper environment to mitigate undesirable microorganisms. SiloSolve® EF is uniquely formulated with three microbial strains in combination with an enzyme. Each work synergistically with the natural fermentation process and are specifically designed to quickly lower pH. As silage ferments, and pH levels decrease, each homofermentatvie strain in SiloSolve® EF optimizes fermentations at these new pH levels. This fermentation strategy ensures that active bacteria are at work during the entire fermentation process. This results in well preserved and nutritious silage. Targeted crops include those with low sugar and high protein, ensiled at high moisture. Advantages • Fast growing and competitive lactic acid bacteria dominate and significantly reduce pH. • Reduced dry matter loss in grass and corn silage • Increased lactic acid for better fermentation • Reduced ammonia nitrogen for improved palatability Package 1,000 g canister treats 500 tons of fresh silage. 1 box contains 6 x 1,000 g canisters.
