Keep your sows happy with
IMHW Master Mix-
SOW LIMITED
You’ll be happier too.
New Sow Limited is a better way to feed
gestating sows and gilts, it's designed for use in
a self-feeder for confinement operations. Just fill
the feeder—and sows can eat whenever they're
hungry. It’s a definite advantage over every
other-day feeding. Sows don't get hungry.
They’re not as restless. And they’re easier to
handle. Sow Limited can be free-choice fed
because it’s a “self-limiting” feed. Sows and gilts
get just enough feed to keep them in top con
dition and there are three Sow Limited formulas
to give your sows and gilts proper nutrition from
conception to farrowing.
Try new Sow Limited from Master Mix.
Because happier sows could mean fewer
problems for you.
