High sublethal temperatures
can place a stress upon the
trout’s physiological
mechanisms.
Although brown trout can
withstand slightly higher
temperatures than either
brook or rainbow trout, they
are not recommended for
ponds, because they are
more difficult to catch them

LIQUID
SILAGE FORTIFIER
A revolutionary new concept in improving
silages. University tested and proven MOPRO
Liquid Silage Fortifier is formulated to balance
the major mineral and protein deficiencies of
silages. It also prevents loss from mold and rot
after being removed from the silo or trench.
MOPRO is added at the time of ensiling and is
applied by metering equipment with very little
handling cost. MOPRO will not corrode mild
steel tanks or brass fittings and has no free
ammonia odor to irritate the eyes or skin.
MOPRO is a homogeneous solution of ammonia
salts, urea, cane molasses, and minerals (except
salt and calcium) in an efficient liquid carrier. It
provides nitrogen for improved fermentation in
the rumen and contains a mineral balance of
phosphorous, magnesium, and trace elements.
MOPRO 100 will give a resulting silage of up to
14.3% protein.
