Silage Additive

Order Now

 

 

Maximising yield from home grown forage is fundamental to farm profitability. When it comes to silage quality, fermentation is the key and silage additives can have a significant impact of the quality of the ensiled crop by ensuring a rapid and stable fermentation.

 

Our range of silage additives has been specially selected to give our customers access to some of the most effective additives available and help them produce the best possible silage for their livestock.

 

NWF Sila-Guard 40 – for Intelligent Silage

 

NWF Sila-Guard 40 is a new generation additive which changes our thinking about effective silage fermentation and uses a unique three step process to make better silage.

 

Step 1 specific enzymes break down the usually indigestible cell wall to produce sugars which influence the rate and quality of fermentation

 

Step 2 bacteria which produce both lactic and acetic acid use these and other naturally occurring sugars to produce a stable fermentation, based on a combination of lactic and acetic acid. NWF Sila-Guard 40 silages will have higher levels of acetic acid and reduced levels of lactic acid compared to traditionally fermented feeds, giving a more rumen friendly fermentation.

 

Step 3 other bacteria in the additive control and inhibit the growth of pathogens in the silage, improving aerobic stability and slashing waste.

 

Result - NWF Sila-Guard 40 produces silage with:

 

• Higher sugar content
• Greater palatability
• Lower levels of lactic acid
• Superior inhibition of yeast and moulds
• Improved aerobic stability and less waste.

 

NWF Sila-Guard 40 meets all EU and regulatory requirements and is manufactured by the world’s leading biotechnology company.

 

NWF Folia SEC is a silage additive containing specific Microbiological active ingredients for optimal preservation of maize and high dry matter silages.

 

NWF Folia PS is a silage additive containing specific Microbiological and Enzymatic active ingredients for optimal preservation of low sugar and low dry matter forages.

 

Silage additives can:

 

• Improve feed intake by promoting a more palatable crop
• Improve fermentation
• Improve silage digestibility
• Increase milk production in dairy cows
• Increase LWG in beef cattle
• Reduce ensilaging losses
• Reduce effluent production
