It’s no secret
that feed is the
single biggest
cost in producing
pork. That’s why
it pays to make
sure your
mg program gets
your pigs to mar
ket weight in the
shortest possible
time.
From Agway Squealer Pellets
to Agway Pork Finisher, there’s
a farm-tested Agway feed nutri
tionally formulated for each stage
of a pig’s growth. Agway com-
plete swine feeds provide all
known nutritional needs, includ
ing energy, protein (ammo
acids), minerals and vitamins.
