Silage biosolutions
Better silage made simple
With our silage inoculants, we enable farmers to improve silage quality and reduce waste, ensuring the profitability of your farm.
Your challenges are ours, too
Fresh, nutritious silage is key to cattle health and performance. But achieving consistent quality isn’t easy. Weather, crop variability, spoilage and heating can all lead to nutrient losses—compromising feed value, intake and ultimately, farm profitability.
Silage smart - power fermentation with biology
Unlock more from your forage with silage inoculants. Our microbial biosolutions help preserve nutrients, reduce losses and improve silage stability—so your cattle get consistent, high-quality feed and you get more value from every harvest.
Backed by science and a legacy of Chr. Hansen and Novozymes, Novonesis brings biosolutions, services, tools and partnership to help you farm smarter, unlocking your potential for profit.

The evolution of silage inoculants
Three generations for smarter fermentation - we offer you a full range for every need.
1st generation - fast fermentation
Homofermentative bacteria, like L. plantarum produce lactic acid to quickly drop the pH. This fast acidification helps preserve nutrients and improves silage stability—especially important when conditions are right and dry matter losses need to be controlled.
2nd generation - stability matters
Heterofermentative bacteria, like L. buchneri, produce acetic acid to improve aerobic stability—slowing down spoilage when silage is exposed to air, especially at feed-out.
3rd Generation – OxyCap® technology
Combining the strengths of both approaches—Lactococcus lactis for rapid oxygen removal and lactic acid production, and L. buchneri for acetic acid—we now can create the ideal conditions from day one: fast pH drop, quick fermentation start, early stabilization and long-lasting aerobic stability. It’s smarter fermentation for modern silage challenges.

How silage inoculants work
There’s more to silage than packing and sealing. Behind the scenes, fermentation is doing the heavy lifting—and the right inoculants can tip the balance in your favor. Let’s take a closer look at the biology that makes better silage possible.
Strains matter
Not all probiotics are created equal. The right strain makes all the difference when it comes to stability, activity, and results. Learn why strain selection is key to developing effective probiotic biosolutions for animal health and nutrition.
The eight steps to a better silage
Great silage doesn’t happen by accident. From field to feed-out, every step matters. These eight critical control points help you lock in quality, reduce losses and get more from your forage—season after season.
