CrimpSafe 300
Crimped Grain Preservatives
Essential for the effective preservation of high value crimped feeds, CrimpSafe 300 is applied by a pump applicator through the crimping machine. This preservative works by controlling the fermentation of the crimped grain, thereby minimising the amount of valuable rumen nutrients that could be lost in a poorly controlled fermentation. The formulation is designed to give maximum protection against spoilage organisms that could cause deterioration of the feed once the clamp or bag is opened at feedout. Independent, farm-scale trials have shown that, if applied at the recommended rate and ensiled correctly, CrimpSafe 300 will keep crimped grain fresh and stable for up to 300 hours after exposure to air.
To ensure even coverage we recommend that CrimpSafe 300 should be diluted 50:50 with clean water and applied at the rates detailed in the following table, or as advised by your representative.
CrimpSafe 300 application rates
Cereals including maize:
Add New | Moisture (%) | App. rate (ltr/t undiluted) | App. rate (ltr/t diluted 50:50 with water) |
Maize/Wheat | Less than 30 | 3.0 | 6.0 |
Maize/Wheat | More than 30 | 2.5 | 5.0 |
Barley/Oats | Less than 30 | 3.5 | 7.0 |
Barley/Oats | More than 30 | 3.0 | 6.0 |
At the lower moisture levels it can help to add water by hosepipe, through the crimping machine. This can help to soften the grain and make consolidation easier.
