SCHAUMANN offers biological and chemical products for silage production. BONSILAGE, SCHAUMANN's biological preservatives, are the optimal solution for the production of high-quality roughage. The quality of roughage is decisive for milk yields, sustainable animal health and profitable milk production.


Biological additives for silage consist of lactic acid bacteria that control the fermentation process and establish the correct ratio of fermentation acids. In this way, maximum benefit can be extracted from the silage.


Silage additives reliably protect against secondary heating and ensure aerobic stability. Yeasts, moulds and clostridia are suppressed in the silage. Other benefits are reduced silage losses, increased digestibility, increased proportion of protein not degraded in the rumen, increased roughage intake and reduced losses during extraction from silage storage.


Silage preservatives are precisely matched to silage types - grass, clover, alfalfa, legumes, green rye, HPS, maize, maize meal, SCC and maize grain. For example, silage products from the BONSILAGE SPEED group contain a strain of lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus diolivorans, which reduces silage preparation time by up to 14 days. BONSILAGE FIT prevents ketosis through the formation of propylene glycol and improves cow condition.
