Get the most feed value out of
your hay with Beacon Hay Pre-Serv*
You get more milk per ton of hay
when you treat your hay with Beacon Hay
__ Pre-Serv. Hay Pre-Serv lets you cut hay as
much as 26 hours earlier, at moisture levels
up to 25%.
This means a larger hay crop, with less
leaf loss and shattering, and less risk of
weather damage. Hay Pre-Serv is easily
applied to baled, chopped or stacked hay
and prevents mold, spoilage, oxidation and
excessive heating.
