Livestock benefitsThere have been a total of 19 beef trials with Ecosyl. Five of these were with growing cattle that were fed grass silage with Ecosyl treatment. The results showed on average a significant 15.2% improvement in daily live weight gain.
This year we increased our milk from forage from 2500L to 3200L this year. Ecosyl keeps the silage really well and does a good job - we have been using it for 10 years now. Don't change what isn't broken!
