, gh moisture
com is one of your cheapest sources
of energy. But without the_proper
nutrients, this energy will be largely
wasted as “empty calories."
New Agway HMC Balancer is a
specially formulated concentrate that
supplies valuable nutrients otherwise
marginal or missing in high moisture
com. Agway HMC Balancer contains
32% protein of the right solubility,
along with other minerals and vitamins
needed to get the most from your
herd in milk and profits. It is a
Pro:Right* feed, with regulated protein
solubility.
So if you’re planning to feed high
moisture com, balance it with new
Agway HMC Balancer.
For more information call your
Agway Dairy Enterprise Salesperson,
or your local Agway.
