Dry matter recovery data from these conventional silos demonstrates a 6.3%
difference in feedable alfalfa silage. For each 100 tons of silage, there would be
an additional 6.3 tons of silage available for feeding. This is equivalent to 3.5 tons
of 90% dry matter hay worth approximately $350.00. This is a $3.50 return for
each $l.OO investment in SILO BOOSTER from a reduction in fermentation
losses alone.

SILO-BOOSTER
Why should you use new Master Mix SILO-BOOSTER
instead of another product? SILO-BOOSTER has been
proven in 20 years of on-farm use, as well as in continuous
university research. With each new discovery in silage
science, we have improved the original formula. Today’s
SILO-BOOSTER gives the most effective silage innoculant
yet developed.
APPLICATION: 1 Lb. of SILO-BOOSTER per ton of Forage.
SILO-BOOSTER Soluble is mixed with water.
