Britmilk - Model Stay-Cool -Food Preservative Salts

SHARE
Stay-Cool: contains nitrites (food preservative) which breakdown to form a gas which penetrates throughout the clamp. This gas restricts the growth of undesirable organisms (enterobacteria/clostridial) thus preserving more proteins and sugars in the forage.

Stay-Cool: contains potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate and sodium acetate (food preservatives) which breakdown to sorbic acid, benzoic acid and acetic acid within the clamp – all three acids have a strong anti microbial effect on yeasts (heating) moulds (toxins) and other undesirable organisms.
 
Stay-Cool enhancing bacteria brings together the tried and tested homo-fermentative bacteria used in Bioferm for over 30 years plus new innovative strain that produce bacteriocins. All the challenges are still there, but with lower risk. Stay-Cool‘s use of food preservative salts (4) plus homo fermentative bacteria is the No. 1 Choice for those challenging problems.Is a unique blend of food preservative salts which prevent the growth of harmful bacteria yeasts and moulds producing stable silage with extended face and trough life. Stay-Cool is delivered ready to use in liquid form in 1000 litre tanks, making very simple to use. Applied at between 1-2 litres for grass and maize and 2-3 litres for whole crop.
  • Soil/slurry contamination will increase dramatically the number of clostridia bacteria making it almost impossible in a wet silage to get a good fermentation.
  • Carry over of dead grass from spring to 1st cut will greatly increase numbers of yeasts and fungi spores making for a more unstable silage at feed out.
  • Excessive wilting (36-48 hours) – longer wilts will encourage growth of yeast and other bad bacteria in the field (5-10 fold increase) which again makes stability at the clamp face and at feed out more of a problem.
  • Unused nitrogen (high proteins).
  • Greater potential from contaminates a) more cuts more potential for soil contamination b) more cuts more potential for contamination from slurry
  • Greater risks from unused Nitrogen still remaining in the grass
  • Harder to achieve dry matter of 28%+ from young leafy grass
  • Weather windows: greater risk when trying to get 4 or more windows of good weather
