Any residual chemical of any kind (in any storage or application apparatus) should be flushed completely, and the equipment cleaned thoroughly with water eliminating residue of any kind.

For Use on Hay

Spray PRESERVOR™ as it is fed into the baler using the correct application rate indicated by the chart below.

For Use on Haylage

Spray PRESERVOR™ as it is fed into the baler using the correct application rate indicated below.

Optimum haylage moisture range 55-65% depending on storage structure - 2 to 4 lbs/ton.

For Use on Baleage

Spray PRESERVOR™ as it is fed into the baler using the correct application rate indicated below.

Optimum baleage moisture range 48-56% - 2 to 4 lbs/ton.

For Use on Silage and TMR

Spray PRESERVOR™ on crop at chopper or blower intake using the correct application rate indicated below.

*TMR usage rate depends on average daily air temperatures. Use rates should increase as air temperature rises.

For Use on High Moisture Grains

Spray PRESERVOR™ using the correct application rate indicated below.

For whole corn, increase rate 2x-3x.

  1. Prevent air leagage - ensure silo has no cracks or holes
  2. Harvest at full dent and at proper moisture level
  3. Ensile rapidly with uniform distribution in the silo and all kernels cracked
  4. Apply at the correct rate based on moisture content
  5. Pack well for good fermentation. Seal off with plastic sheeting

PRESERVOR™ containers should be protected from any and all foreign particles that could potentially clog application nozzles.

Use a reliable moisture tester to determine moisture content of the hay in the windrow before applying PRESERVOR™. Follow applicator instructions to calculate bailing rate and set sprayer calibration. Use three nozzles to achieve complete coverage.

All application equipment should be in good working order so that good coverage is obtained (all spray nozzle openings should be clean and free of obstruction and should be placed to ensure thorough coverage).

Application of PRESERVOR™ is NOT recommended if the hay moisture level exceeds 30%.

Baled hay treated with PRESERVOR™ should be in a protected, but well ventilated, area.

Stack hay to provide maximum air movement between bales. Untreated dry hay should not be stored in contact with PRESERVOR™ treated hay.

Keep PRESERVOR™ from freezing.

A Better Solution

Using technology to preserve the quality and bunk life of baled hay.

PRESERVOR™ is a Potassium Sorbate-based preservative providing significantly longer shelf life for baled hay and increased palatability for livestock.

Tests show that hay bales treated with PRESERVOR™ are fresher, greener and mold-free longer than bales treated with propionic acid preservatives.

PRESERVOR™ is the first effective preservative on the market to be completely user-friendly, environmentally safe and an anti-corrosive/rust inhibitor to farm equipment.

Why Choose PRESERVOR™?

  • Better long-term microbial protection to preserve the quality of animal feed hay
  • Performance is superior to traditional propionic acid based products
  • Effective at higher moisture - up to 30 percent and wide ranges of pH
  • Non-toxic, environmentally friendly and biodegradable
  • Ingredients are FDA approved, GRAS and EPA exempt
  • Non-corrosive to farm equipment
