Insights into the power of silage inoculants
Silage, Beneficial Bacteria & a journey to Bulgaria
Recently, Addcon had the pleasure of sending Paolo Carcano, our esteemed veterinarian and manager, to Bulgaria for an insightful tour organized by HL-TopMix.
Paolo shared his expertise on the crucial yet often overlooked topic of silage and haylage inoculants.
He highlighted how these beneficial bacteria, added during the silage-making process, play a vital role in controlling fermentation, preventing reheating, and preserving nutritional value.
The result? Better-tasting feed, reduced waste, and healthier animals.
During his visit, Paolo provided practical tips on:

Before returning to Italy, Paolo expressed heartfelt gratitude for the hospitality and professionalism of the HL-TopMix team.
This collaboration underscores our commitment to the sustainable growth of livestock farming in Bulgaria.
