PRO-CID 

Multi-Purpose Feed, Water & Silage Preservative

Mode of Action

Propionic Acid

Excellent inhibitor of moulds and yeasts.

Prevents feed heating.

Extends feed shelf life.

Controls fungal growth.

Reduces mycotoxin-producing fungi.

Formic Acid

Strong antibacterial activity against:

Salmonella

E. coli

Clostridium

Reduces feed pH.

Improves hygiene of feed and water.

Supports gut health.

Sodium Formate

Buffering organic acid salt.

Reduces corrosiveness.

Prolongs acid release.

Improves handling safety.

Continues antimicrobial activity further along the gastrointestinal tract.

Benefits in Animal Feed

✔ Prevents mould growth

✔ Controls bacterial contamination

✔ Maintains freshness

✔ Reduces nutrient loss

✔ Preserves vitamins

✔ Improves feed hygiene

✔ Extends storage life

✔ Reduces heating during storage

Benefits in Drinking Water

Lowers water pH to 3.8–4.5.

Controls biofilm formation.

Reduces bacterial load.

Improves water hygiene.

Enhances digestion.

Improves feed conversion ratio.

Increases water intake during heat stress.

Benefits in Silage

This combination is highly effective as a silage additive because:

Rapid pH reduction.

Inhibits undesirable bacteria.

Prevents clostridial fermentation.

Conserves sugars.

Improves lactic acid fermentation.

Reduces dry matter losses.

Prevents heating after silo opening.

Improves aerobic stability.

Increases palatability.

Recommended Dosage

Poultry Feed

0.5–2.0 kg/ton feed

Pig Feed

1–3 kg/ton

Dairy Feed

1–3 kg/ton

Aqua Feed

0.5–1.5 kg/ton

Drinking Water

0.5–2.0 mL/L

(Target water pH: 3.8–4.5)

Silage

For maize, sorghum, grass, and forage:

2–5 L/ton fresh forage

depending on moisture content.

Expected Performance

60–90% reduction in mould growth.

Significant reduction in Salmonella contamination.

Improved aerobic stability of silage by 2–5 days after opening.

Lower nutrient losses during storage.

Better feed conversion and animal performance through improved feed hygiene.
