OMRI APPROVED FORMULA AVAILABLE
QUALITY CONTROL
Products are independently tested to ensure manufacturing quality is maintained. Lallemand Animal Nutrition production facilities follow a strict Total Quality Management System to ensure product purity and quality.
All Biotal Forage Inoculants are manufactured at our facility in Milwaukee, WI under the following internationally recognized quality accreditation systems: ISO 9001: 2000; AIB GMP certification; AFIA Safe Feed/Safe Food Certification; FAMI-qs.
PRODUCT STORAGE AND APPLICATION
Store unopened packages in a cool, dry place. Refrigeration at or below 40°F is recommended. Shelf life is 18 months from date of manufacture when stored as recommended. Can be applied using any suitable applicator. Ensure that the applicator is properly cleaned and calibrated.
All Biotal Forage Inoculants include a proprietary blend of stabilizers to both maintain viability in the package and to enhance stability following rehydration of the product. Once rehydrated with potable (drinking quality) water, the product will maintain viability for 3-4 days in the applicator tank, when kept cool and out of direct sunlight.
Biotal Forage Inoculants are not affected by chlorine up to potable water standards (1 ppm).
Some of the essential product stabilizers are finely divided, insoluble powders (1-3% by weight). This may result in a small residue of fine white powder in the bottom of the applicator.
DUAL POWER FORMULA
Biotal® Buchneri 500 combines the proven attributes of two elite lactic acid bacteria: Pediococcus pentosaceus 12455 and Lactobacillus buchneri 40788. This powerful combination gives you fast, efficient fermentation on the front end, and reduced heating and spoilage on the back end.
THE POWER OF PEDIOCOCCUS PENTOSACEUS 12455:
FASTEST pH DROP
Strain12455 was specifically selected
from thousands of isolates for:
• Fastest growth and pH drop
• Widest range of sugars utilized
• Growth over widest temperature range
In independent trials, Pediococcus pentosaceus 12455 consistently produces faster, more efficient ensiling fermentations giving significant improvements in dry matter recovery over a wide range of conditions. See Figure 1
THE POWER OF LACTOBACILLUS BUCHNERI 40788:
REDUCED HEATING AND SPOILAGE
Strain 40788 was isolated and proven by world-leading forage scientists (ID-DLO, Holland and USDA FRC) and has been FDA reviewed for efficacy in preventing heating and spoilage.
• Consistant reduction of yeast and mold spoilage. See Figure 2.
• Less waste
• Increased dry matter retention−more forage to feed
• Better hygienic feed quality for improved stability at feedout
Treatment with strain 40788 also increases the stability of the TMR compared to those made with untreated silage or silage treated with buffered propionic acid. Data from trials at the University of Delaware are shown below in Figure 3.
