Organic Acids
BASF organic acids preserve the quality of compound feed, grain, farm-based mixed feeds as well as byproducts and improve the production of hay and silage.
Unpredictable weather patterns and heavy rainfall constantly present challenges to hay and grain harvest or to silage making. Acid treatment helps to protects feed against deterioration caused by microorganisms or their metabolites even at lower moisture contents.
Benefits at a glance
- Protect feed against deterioration caused by micro-organisms or their metabolites
- Improve the production of silage when being incorporated in the feed
- Compared to straight acids, our mixtures and blends are just skin and eye irritant and less corrosive

Amasil® 75, 85 & 99
Contaminated feed is the main source of salmonella infections in animal production (swine, poultry). Salmonella infections result in reduced feed conversion and increased mortality. Amasil® is a formic acid that effectively preserves compound feed by its acidifying properties. It also has pronounced hygiene condition enhancement properties and is a powerful tool against pathogens such as salmonella and E. coli.
Amasil® NA
Contaminated feed is the main source of salmonella infections in animal production (swine, poultry). Salmonella infections result in reduced feed conversion and increased mortality. Amasil® is a formic acid that effectively preserves compound feed by its acidifying properties. It also has pronounced hygiene condition enhancement properties and is a powerful tool against pathogens such as salmonella and E. coli. As buffered product, Amasil® NA is easy to handle and less corrosive.
Lupro-Cid® NA & Lupro-Mix® NA
Lupro-Cid® NA and Lupro-Mix® NA offer an optimal combination of propionic and formic acid to effectively reduce the number of yeasts, bacteria and fungi in feed. This prevents their reproduction and therewith stops undesirable fermentation processes. Moreover, they improve the production of silage when incorporated in the feed. As buffered products they are easy to handle and less corrosive.
Lupro-Cid®
The acid blend Lupro-Cid® effectively combines the strengths of formic and propionic acid in one application. This combination is very effective against fungi, bacteria and yeasts. Moreover, it improves the production of silage when incorporated in the feed.
Lupro-Grain®, Lupro-Grain® (NF) & Luprosil® NC
Lupro-Grain®, Lupro-Grain® (NF) and Luprosil® NC are buffered propionic acids. They are an easy-to-handle, user-friendly and at the same time highly effective alternative to pure acids. With our non-corrosive products, you can easily protect feed against deterioration caused by microorganisms or their metabolites even at lower moisture contents.
Luprosil®
If a high water content in feedstuffs coincides with the naturally high microbe population, explosive propagation of the fungi, yeasts and bacteria occurs. Luprosil® is traditionally known for its preservative and mold-inhibiting properties. It is highly effective against field fungi during harvesting and suppresses reproduction of mold fungi during storage.
