Formic Acid 73 % for Calf Milk & Silage Additive – For Stable Feeding and Hygienic Silage

Looking to optimize feed hygiene in your barn while supporting your calves' digestion? With Formic Acid 73 % for Calf Milk & Silage Additive, you benefit from a highly concentrated solution for effective pH reduction. It reliably inhibits the growth of unwanted bacteria like E. coli and ensures hygienic stabilization.

Thanks to its special formula, drinking milk is safely acidified and optimally pre-digested for your calves. This means it remains highly digestible even at temperatures below 39 °C in cold or stock feeders. As a versatile silage additive, it also promotes the natural fermentation process and suppresses harmful organisms like clostridia or yeasts, ensuring the long-term quality of your forage.

Plus, you’ll benefit from a synergistic effect of various organic acids that not only improve preservation but also keep your total mixed ration (TMR) fresh and tasty. By specifically preventing re-heating, the feed stays attractive to your animals, keeping feed intake stable.

Questions & Answers

How do I dose the formic acid correctly for calf feeding?
For calves, first dilute the formic acid in a 1:9 ratio with water, then add 10 ml of this mixture per liter of milk or milk replacer to the ration.

What is the benefit of acidifying the milk?
Lowering the pH value pre-digests the milk. This ensures the drink remains highly digestible and stabilized even at temperatures below 39 °C, which is ideal for stock and cold feeding.

How does the product work as a silage additive?
It lowers the pH value in the silage, suppressing harmful microorganisms like clostridia, putrefactive bacteria, or yeasts, while promoting the natural fermentation process of the silage.

Is there a general dosage recommendation for feed stabilization?
Yes, for prophylactic stabilization, a ratio of 1:500 is recommended, while a dosage of 1:250 should be used in acute cases.
