EM Silage

What is EM-SILAGE
EM Silage contains lactic acid bacteria and yeast. This is a unique combination and allows for stabilisation and pre fermentation of the silage. The fermentation process helps to break down the plant matter into a more readly digestable form and which therefore means that more energy is available to the cow when compared to normal silage. Cows fed on EM silage will produce at least an extra kilo of milk per day and at the same time reduce the amount of supplementary compound feed required - therefore saving on costs and increasing income and at the same time improving the general health of the animal.

EM-SILAGE is a ready to use liquid and does not require brewing before use.

It is available in a 20L and 5L 'bag in a box' pack with an outlet tap allowing measured quantities to be drawn off.
Bottles are also available in 1Ltr and 4Ltr quantities to get the job finished.

EM-SILAGE has been proven in the field in commercial use in Europe over a five-year period and having been tested in 2004 in the UK is now on commercial release.

EM-SILAGE can be used in grass, maize and whole crop silages. There is therefore no need to source separate products for each application.

Properties & Benefits

EM-SILAGE will reduce overheads andf increase productivity. As EM-silage is highly digestable, less methane is produced in the rumen and so therefore the cow does not loose this 'energy' form the feed and a major source of greenhouse gas is reduced.

EM-SILAGE produces a silage with a distinctive smell and taste that feeds well.

Tests at the Wageningen Institute have demonstrated an increased milk yield from cows fed on silage treated with EM-SILAGE.

The yeast component of EM-SILAGE produces anaerobic metabolites that stop heating of the silage when it becomes exposed to air on feeding out.

EM-SILAGE is non toxic to operators and the environment and non corrosive to equipment.

EM-SILAGE is a live culture of microorganisms but in a dormant state. It has a shelf life of 1 year in the box and only 24 hours once mixed with water.

A 20L box of EM-SILAGE will treat 250MT of grass or maize. It is used at a dose rate of 80mls per MT, by diluting in water and applying through a conventional hydraulic nozzle to the crop at harvest/collection.

Using EM on the Farm

EM-A can be used on the farm for a variety of uses. It can be used for washing down cowsheds, pig stys, sheep pens and poultry houses. Not only will it reduce odours, but it will also help to improve the health and wellbeing of the stock.

It will both aid with break down of animal effluent, resulting in the reduction of odours from slurry tanks and help supress any any undesirable pathogens in the stock buildings.
