The silage is a forage preservation technique achieved by means of a spontaneous lactic acid fermentation under anaerobic conditions. In many countries, these silages are prized as animal feed.
Salt is a preservative of forage and its use is to increase the rate of acidification, stability and shelf life of silage.
Its bacteriostatic function limits the growth of bacteria and microorganisms preventing fermentation and putrefaction of silage, preserving its organoleptic and nutritional properties from start of the silage to consumption.

Gema Salt/Mine > Rock Dry Salts
Are all those Rock Salts which have undergone a process of spinning, drying and sieving to select a specific granulometry.Their main characteristic is a maximum moisture content of 0.3%.
Rock salts drys are classified according to grain size, (from smallest to largest), and physicochemical characteristics in accordance with their Data Sheet
-
Sea Salts > Wet Salts
Are all those Sea Salts that have not undergone an artificial drying process and some retain the natural moisture content up to a maximum of 4% and others only suffered a centrifuge process with a maximum moisture level of 2%.
They are classified according to grain size from largest to smallest and physicochemical characteristics in accordance with their data sheet.
