Product description: Silo Guard II is a preservative containing sulfur compounds, enzymes and sugars that act as a fermentation aid and as a mold and yeast inhibitor.
How the product works: Silo Guard II is a unique approach to preservingcrops in a storage structure. Silo Guard II includes sulfur compounds that, in the presence of moisture and plant acids from the forage, produce sulfur gases that retard the growth of the undesirable aerobic bacteria and fungi (mold and yeast) thus saving the available sugar for the lactic acid producing bacteria when they begin to multiply. The sulfur compounds grab the available oxygen in the silage mass keeping it away from the undesirable bacteria, mold spores and yeast spores. This antioxidant activity stops the growth of undesirable organisms. The addition of Silo Guard II to the forage mass ensures a speedy end to respiration and the early development of anaerobic conditions.
Recommended uses: Silo Guard II can be used on corn silage, alfalfa and grass haylage, small grain silage, high moisture corn, baleage and dry hay. Silo Guard II can also be used on the tops and faces of bunkers/piles, on the top of modified wet distillers piles and when
moving any of the above from one location to another. Silo Guard II can be used in conventional upright silos, oxygen limiting silos, bunkers, piles, bags, and wrapped & unwrapped hay bales.
