' > Claude Hess ‘ Milford Mast 215-286-9118 Elverson, Pa. “I get more eggs with less feed using Har vestall Chillcured corn. 9 For feeding my flock of 10,000 Shaver hens I know there’s nothing better than naturally cufed corn This Harvestall Chillcunng system is everything the man said it would be I get the quality grain 1 want and I save money in the process 1 switched last year from heatdrying my corn to curing it in the Harvestall It was a good chance to see if there is any difference between heat dried corn and naturally cured corn, because between the 1979 flock and the 1980 flock the only difference was the corn they were fed This comparison is taken from summaries prepared by Heritage Poultry Management Services in Anneville Both flocks had completed 11 periods. FEED CONVERSION PERCENT HEN DAY PRODUCTION 78.86 83.7 Where the average feed cost per dozen eggs in this area was 27‘ my cost was 23.23 The fact of the matter is that 1 got better production with less feed because the quality of feed was better, and the only thing that changed was the corn. The surprising thing was that when we added up the better feed conversion plus the increased production, we found an increase of more than a dollar r»~ bird in 1980 over 1979. On top of that 1 saved significantly in drying costs, both in reduced shrinkage and lower fuel cost. Plus the investment tax credit and energy tax credit add up to 20".. That’s why I say (hat if the other systems were free, 1 would still be better off buying the Harvestall because of the way it pays (or itself and keeps on appreciating Doesn’t it make sense that grain that is naturally cured will be higher quality than grain that has had the life cooked out of it?
