Kofasil - Model LAC - Lactic Acid Bacteria
KOFASIL LAC is an inoculant containing two homofermentative strains of the lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus plantarum). These have been specially isolated from silage for use as a silage inoculant and have not been genetically modified. The use of KOFASIL LAC results in silage crops (e.g. grass, legumes plants) in an intensive lactic acid formation which drops the pH value quickly and significantly. This inhibits the development of undesirable harmful bacteria such as clostridia and reduces DM-losses. Treating forage crops with KOFASIL LAC results in high-energy, nutrient-rich silage that is perfectly hygienic and is ideal for feeding to high-performance cattle.
KOFASIL® LAC stands for
improves fermentation quality and minimises DM losses during silaging increases DM intake and milk yield improves profitability of cattle production
- KOFASIL LAC is mixed with tap water and can be used immediately.
- The product is suited for microdosing (20-50ml/t). For optimum distribution we recommend an application amount between 1.0 and 2.0 litres per tonne of silage crop.
- KOFASIL LAC is particularly suitable for improving the fermentation quality of silage made of grass, legumes or their mixtures and green cereal plants
