There’s no question high 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 m 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.
