Additives for forage preservation

To choose the correct additives for the preservation of the forage we intend to store, it is important to ask the right questions and give equally correct answers by evaluating several basic parameters, such as the ensilability index (FC).

Tecnozoo provides some guidelines outlining all the aspects to consider for this choice:

What we can consider acceptable results are:
– Low dry matter losses
– Absence of butyric acid
– High nutrient content
Biological additives work only under optimal conditions such as high sugar content, low soil contamination, favorable ensiling conditions, and a high feeding rate; in all other conditions, the use of a chemical additive is recommended.

What is our goal during ensiling?

And how do I choose the correct additives for forage preservation?
