    Laboratory analysis of both treated and untreated silages confirms the in
creased production of lactic acid by the bacterial cultures in SILO
BOOSTER.
Lactic acid % (average of
11 measurements from day 1 to day 30)
pH (average of 11 measurements
from day 1 to day 30)
While both silages showed very similar changes in total pH change; the
SILO-BOOSTER treated silage contained more lactic acid. The homofer
mentive production of lactic acid by SILO-BOOSTER cultures reduces the
potential for dry matter losses and the generation of excessive heat of
fermentation.

Statistics conducted on weekly totals.
SILO-BOOSTER treated silage was able to generate income per ton of forage
feed. With milk valued at | .125 per pound; butterfat at $ .17 per point; forage
at $ .045 per pound of dry matter, and the concentrate portions at $ .08 per
pound; SILO-BOOSTER silage returned $4.90 for each $l.OO invested in
inoculant. t
APPLICATION: 1 Lb. of SILO-BOOSTER per ton of Forage.

SILO-BOOSTER
Why should you use Master Mix SILO-BOOSTER instead
of another product? SBLO-BOOSTER has been proven in 20
years of on-fafm use, as well as in continuous university
research. With each new discovery in silage sicence, we
have improved the original formula. Today’s SILO
BOOSTER gives the most effective silage innoculant yet
developed.
