Activator +

Biological silage additives can improve the fermentation of silage by dominating the microbial population of the forage. This helps to lower the pH of the silage quickly, ensuring better retention of true protein and a more palatable feed with higher intake potential than untreated silage.

Activator + is ideal for use on all grass silages in the dry matter range 18-28%, and also produces excellent results in crops with high clover content, where lower sugar levels and raised protein value can adversely affect efficient fermentation. Activator + has been extensively and independently trialled to demonstrate improved fermentation, reduced nutrient loss and improved animal performance.

The application rate for Activator + is recommended as follows:

Outer pack – 5 x 4 x 100g sachets – treats 500 tonnes @ 1 litre per tonne
Single pack – 1 x 4 x 100g sachets – treats 100 tonnes @ 1 litre per tonne
For ULV application mix 4 x 100g pack in 4 litres of water and apply @ 40ml/t
