Ag-Bag
System
“It's in the Bag” is more than
a catch-word on the Flynn
farm. The Flynn brothers,
Gene, Tom and Adrian, use a
two-ply plastic bagging
system, called the Ag-Bag, to
store haylage and silage.
Advantages of the bag
' system. Several plus factors
are cited for this bagging
system. It is effective, econ
omical and helps the dairy
man get maximum utilization
from forage crops. Mix
rations as you feed.
SWITCH
Farmer, the tool you need is
the Ag-Bagger. No other silage
storer can you profit from by
doing custom work Ag Bag
Machine more than pays for
itself. Look around and talk to
your neighbors. Farmers with
more than one farm having the
Ag-Bagger do not have to haul
feed back and forth from farm
to farm. Place bags anywhere
you please.
