AGUMV HIGH LAVER FEEDS
Practical application of
the DNI concept that lifts
your flock to higher
production on less feed.
Here are sound reasons—backed
by Agway research—for feeding
High Layer:
□ Daily Nutrient Intake (DNI)
feeding eliminates the need for
changing energy levels each
spring and fall.
□ With High Layer feeds, the
energy level remains constant
throughout the year. Hens adjust
their energy intake by consuming
more or less feed.
□ The poultryman simply matches
the feed to the amount of intake.
There is no need to overfeed ex
pensive protein to meet energy
requirements.

fully 50 slaughter steers,
about 35 heifers and 5 cows.
□ At every energy level, the DNI
approach considers the total
nutritional needs of your laying
flock.
□ New High Layer contains the
proper amount of protein (amino
acids), calcium and phosphorus
to insure proper nutrition and
maximum production.
The High Layer line consists of
seven feeds and a concentrate.
For details about the possibilities
of increased production through
a tailored Agway feeding pro
gram, talk to your Agway Poultry
Enterprise Serviceperson. Con
tact him through your local
Agway store or representative.

Matthew 7:26-27 And every
one that heareth these
sayings of mine, and doeth
them not, shall be likened
unto a foolish man, which
built his house upon the
sand:
And the ram descended,
and the floods came, and the
winds blew, and beat upon
that house; and it fell: and
