Few Medium HußiWi'gilrt PRODUCTS are feed balances for the lactic acid making bacteria When added to the silage, it starts the ferment immediately, and in three days the total ferment is usually over. This means it usually makes the total \Vi% lactic acid in three m days instead of the normal three weeks. The shorter and lower heat levels save your energy, vitamin A and digestable protein. RECENT RESULTS FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY SILAGE TEST showed that the IM-PRUV-ALL treated silage had 90 times more bacteria on the second day than the untreated. Other studies have shown that the IM-PRUV-ALL silages many times have averaged 6-8% higher in T.D.N. It's just like feeding 6-8 pds. more grain, or you can feed 6-8 pds. less grain to achieve similar production.
