Silage Inoculant Manufacturer in ChinaSD-705 Silage Additive and Fermentation Agent
Tsingtao Jummos Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. produces SD-705, a microbial silage additive and fermentation agent built for fast, hygienic ensiling. Selected lactic acid bacteria drive rapid acidification, lower dry matter loss, and improve aerobic stability in corn silage, grass silage, and total mixed ration.
As the factory behind the product, we supply direct in bulk, with OEM and private label options for distributors, feed mills, and large livestock operations.
How SD-705 Works
SD-705 works synergistically with a wide range of lactic acid bacteria to produce abundant lactic and propionic acid. This quickly reduces pH and inhibits the growth and secondary fermentation of spoilage organisms such as mould and clostridium. The result is less mould and corruption, and lower dry matter loss.
Under normal conditions, total loss across fermentation, opening, and feed-out runs at around 20 percent. Using SD-705 can reduce that loss by 8 to 15 percent. The aromatic compounds produced during lactic acid fermentation also increase the aroma of the silage and improve palatability and feed intake for dairy cows, while the dominant beneficial bacteria raise digestibility and feed conversion.
SD-705 Specifications
How to Apply SD-705
Add 2.5 to 5 g of SD-705 per ton of fresh whole-plant corn. A single 250 g pack is enough to treat 50 to 100 tons of silage.
- Dissolve one 250 g pack of SD-705 in a 15 L bucket of water and stir until there are no lumps.
- Add the solution to a 300 L tank and spray evenly over the green forage.
- Spray over roughly 1.5 to 2 hours per tank. One prepared tank treats 50 to 100 tons of silage.
- Seal the cellar from the inside out: first a transparent plastic sheet, then a black-and-white film layer, and tyre pressing on top.
Precautions
- Use within a single session after opening. Moisture uptake weakens performance.
- Dissolve fully before use. Undissolved product leaves precipitate and sprays unevenly.
Product Efficacy and Features
Improves Silage Quality
Lactic acid bacteria ferment quickly to produce rich lactic, formic, and propionic acid, rapidly reducing pH.
Higher Dry Matter Recovery
Fast acid production brings the forage into the lactic acid phase early, inhibiting spoilage bacteria and reducing dry matter loss.
Faster Fermentation, Lower pH
Three strains produce acid quickly and in quantity, prolonging silage shelf life and preventing secondary fermentation.
Better Palatability
Silage fermented by lactic acid bacteria is fresh, green, and aromatic. The fragrant, sour taste stimulates appetite and raises intake.
The Three Stages of Silage Fermentation
EnvironmentAerobic
ProcessAerobic bacteria: sugar to CO2 + H2O + heat
- Energy loss
- Sugar reduction
- Increased fibre ratio
EnvironmentAnaerobic
ProcessLactic acid bacteria: sugar to lactic acid, pH drops
- Protein degradation is limited
- Increased starch digestibility
- SD-705 shortens fermentation time
EnvironmentAerobic
ProcessYeasts and moulds: sugar or lactic acid to CO2 + H2O + heat
- Up to 50% of aerobic loss happens here
- SD-705 reduces these losses
Laboratory Evidence
SD-705 has been tested by Centre Testing International (CTI), an independent third-party laboratory. In trials, corn silage treated with SD-705 saw the pH drop from 5.4 to 3.7 within 30 days, confirming fast lactic acid bacteria activity and abundant production of lactic, formic, and propionic acid. Yeast and mould counts were reduced by 37 percent and 50 percent respectively, because rapid acidification brings the forage into the lactic acid phase early and suppresses spoilage organisms.
CTI Test Report
The full CTI inspection results show that SD-705 meets the limit requirements for safety and microbial quality, including heavy metals, pathogens, and guaranteed lactic acid bacteria count.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a silage inoculant?
A silage inoculant is a microbial additive containing selected bacteria, and sometimes enzymes, that steer the fermentation of fresh forage. It speeds up acidification, lowers pH, and reduces spoilage so the silage keeps more of its nutritional value through storage and feed-out.
What is the difference between a silage inoculant and a silage additive?
Silage additive is the broad category for any product added to forage to improve fermentation or preservation, including acids, salts, sugars, and microbial products. A silage inoculant is the microbial type of silage additive, made from live bacteria such as lactic acid bacteria. SD-705 is a microbial silage additive, so it is both a silage additive and a silage inoculant.
What strains are in SD-705?
SD-705 contains Lactobacillus buchneri, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Pediococcus pentosaceus on a maltodextrin carrier, with a total viable count of at least 1.1×1011 CFU/g at the factory.
How much silage inoculant do I use per ton?
Apply 2.5 to 5 g of SD-705 per ton of fresh whole-plant corn. One 250 g pack treats 50 to 100 tons of silage.
Does SD-705 improve aerobic stability?
Yes. The Lactobacillus buchneri in SD-705 produces acetic and propionic acid that suppress yeasts and moulds during feed-out, which reduces heating and spoilage when the silage face is exposed to air.
Can I order SD-705 in bulk, OEM, or private label?
Yes. As a silage inoculant manufacturer in China, we supply in bulk and offer OEM and private-label options, including custom packaging and branding. Contact us for current MOQ, lead time, and export terms.
How should SD-705 be stored and how long does it last?
Store SD-705 in a sealed container in a dry, ventilated place away from light. Low-temperature storage preserves potency best. Shelf life is 24 months.
