“We have a herd of 33 Registered Holsteins. We had been troubled with
breeding problems, sore feet, and the month before we started with Agri-King we
had 5 abortions. No one seemed to be able to find the cause of our problems.
In January 1973 Agri-King took samples, information on our herd, and
balanced my feeding program. Things were better than before, but not quite like
they should be. Agri-King checked the nitrate levels in our roughage and found
we had a high level of nitrates. They included Micro XX in our ration. This is a
product designed to counteract nitrates. Since using this we no longer have
abortions, although we still have the nitrates in our hay.
in August of 1972 we had 40.9 lbs. milk per cow per day and 1.6 lbs. fat per cow
per day. In August 1974 we had 57.4 lbs. milk per cow per day and 2.73 lbs. fat
per cow per day. The cows herd health is much better, our production is higher
than ever before, and there’s more money in the bank account.”

Congressman Daniel J.
Flood addressed the crowd
expressing the need for Pa.
farmers to spread the
message of agriculture.
“Many people even in our
state do not know that
agriculture is a major part of
our economy,” he explained.
“We must let them know
just how involved we are in
agriculture.”
