The new program is based on two new feeds, Primer 1 and Primer 2. Master Mix Research specialists began the development of the Precision Baby Pig Feeding Program with an extensive study of the energy requirements of baby pigs. They found that sow’s milk, while rich in protein, varies greatly in energy. Their objective quickly became clear; to formulate a nursing ration that would supplement - not replace - sow’s milk, to get more energy to the baby pig without adding excessive amounts of protein that often BINS MIX-MILL storage bins are square Each holds 25 tons The versatile square design enables the farmer “on the grow” to com bine bins that provide 300 to 400 tons ca pacity or more as he needs them Advantage Multiple compartments can hold different grams if desired INSIDE FEED ROOM Each bin is mounted on steel legs located around the outside edge and at 12 ft centers in the work area of large combinations This area, when enclosed with steel panels provides a feed room for gravity feed mills, blender, and other equipment REMOTE CONTROL PANEL MIX-MILL’S unique remote control panel gives you total command of your feed making operation.

With justifiable pride, Master Mix nutritionists are calling the new program “The most important breakthrough in baby pig nutrition in more than 25 years,” The new feeds are in a new baby pellet form chosen after feed consumption tests PROGRAMS DBS HB Genetic Mating Service A computerized Mating system based on sound g genetic principles. $ Genetic Trait Summary The First sire trait evaluations based on the g herdmate comparison method.
