FreshFoss reduces heat spoilage in feed rations FreshFoss is a combination of acid salts in powder form, which is mixed into the ration prior to feeding. The acids inhibit the growth conditions of mould and yeast, decreasing the number of nutrients being metabolised and reducing heating. This process protects the feed ration against a loss of valuable nutrients and dry matter. WHY DOES THE FEED RATION GENERATE HEAT? • Heat is generated from proliferation of bacteria, mould and yeast • These microorganisms have excpileellent growth conditions at - Accessibility of sugar and easily digestible carbohydrates - Oxygen-rich environment - High humidity/water - High temperature • This occurs, when silage exits the pile WARM FEED HAS NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON FEED QUALITY • Heating damages the nutritional quality of the feed • Warm feed has higher microbial activity • Warm feed has lower palatability • Consequences - Decreased feed intake - Decreased milk yield - Reduced bottom line FreshFoss Best in Test DOSAGE INSTRUCTIONS • TMR / Silage 0,2-2 kg FreshFoss per ton feed • Grain conservation 1 – 3 kg FreshFoss pr ton • On top of open areas in bunkers 0.25 kg FreshFoss/m 2
