摘要 |
The invention relates to a preservative for use in preparation of green forage, the preservative comprising an active ingredient which is based on formic acid and promotes lactic acid fermentation. The specificity of the lactic acid fermentation has been increased and its non-desirable side effects, such as corrosive, user and environmental hazards, have been eliminated by selecting ethyl formate as the active ingredient based on formic acid. Ethyl formate can be used as such or together with conventional active agents and auxiliary agents, such as C1-C10-carboxylic acids. |
