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.
