With nearly 60 years of performance-proven results, SilaTec will forever change your expectations of what a silage conditioner can do! Our syngeristic formula has been time-tested for decades with outstanding results you can depend on.
Competitor's products still rely on poorer-performing formulations in dry granular packages. Dry products are vastly weaker and simply can not compete with a quality liquid product when it comes to treating silage. Our liquid formula provides the best results!
SilaTec silage conditioner works by feeding the bacteria which produces L-form lactic acid. These bacteria quickly reproduce and ferment silage packs with this sweet, non-toxic fatty acid. This fatty acid also partially digests the silage, making the nutrients more readily available to the animal, thus improving feed value. The end product, being sweet, causes no digestive upsets. It is quickly and naturally turned into propionic acid, further helping the digestive system, and tastes so good that it usually causes the cattle to lick the bunk clean!
The L-form lactic acid-producing bacteria quickly reproduce, crowding out other bacteria in the process. This causes the silage to ferment once and then no more; any leftover bacteria are drowned in the lactic acid, so there is no second, third, fourth fermentation, etc. With the single fermentation, this means less overall shrinkage, saving up to 20% to 30% of the pile, if not more.
Usually, the odors produced by silage fermentation are offensive, and in many cases, they will cause respiratory problems for the cattle. Our SilaTec has none of those issues due to our fermentation control; no respiratory problems, and the odor produced is pleasant! SilaTec encourages calves to go on feed quicker. And it costs less than competitors by saving more money per ton!
Furthermore, our product allows earlier chopping. SilaTec allows you to chop at 70% moisture and higher! This lets your choppers get in the field up to 2 weeks early. It keeps the knives on your chopper sharp since they aren’t cutting lignan and are chopping higher moisture material. Plus, higher moisture means more nutrition with SilaTec; since we control the fermentation method, we also turn this moisture into easily digested nutrients for the cattle and keep it from spoiling.
Ruminants were naturally designed to consume and utilize forages.
With SilaTec-treated silages, greater intakes can be expected than usual without loss of gain or production.
High silage rations (SilaTec treated) result consistently with lowered cost of unit production.
More pounds of energy, protein, and minerals are available per acre as silage than compared to grain only.
This means that more pounds of beef or milk can be produced per acre through silage.
SilaTec-treated silage rations provide very good compatibility with the animal (as an example, incoming cattle ration).
SilaTec silage programs work well with double cropping systems in that earlier-than-usual removal of the first crop is commonplace.
The desire here is to remove crops for silage in a more plush, nutritious state, which has also helped in reducing annual weed problems and reduced insect damage in certain crops by direct cut earlier.
Lowers the temperature of the silage packs.
Reduces spoilage, including the top.
Reduces fuel costs when chopping plusher crops.
Reduces field losses by cutting direct or earlier.
Reduces weather damage from rain or frost.
Reduces storage costs by using a bunker, pit, or piled on a slab or ground
SilaTec’s fermentation process converts nitrates into protein: which eliminates nitrate poisoning.
Our SilaTec-treated earlage fed in place of dry grain will feed out approximately 90% like dry grain. Our program will allow you to harvest more grain for your money!
