Peach market news
September 7,1983
Report Supplied By PDA
Week eight of the Peach Market
News reports the first good news in
quite awhile. Demand especially
for 2V is strong. Prices have
increased on packed fruit. Orchard
run demand has been good also.
However, the smaller size fruit is
still not moving in both packed and
orchard run fruit.
The extensive media blitz of the
past two weeks that resulted in
many news items including
television, radio and newspaper
coverage coincides with the in
crease in demand and prices.
Hopefully, this helped gel the
peach message to the consumers.
Late season varieties are in full
swing. Most report they are in
their last week to 10 days of the
1983 peach season.
Summary
These are the latest wholesale.
Agway Fresh Cow you four benefits
that add up to extra profits
1. Tests prove 2.6 lbs more milk per
day during the first 90 days
During the first 90 days of lactation your cows
experience their highest levels of stress—stress
that can severely limit production.
However, Agway Fresh Cow Plus can help
minimize stress during this critical time, and
maximize profits. Fresh Cow Plus is formulated
according to the Agway-patented protein solu
bility program, and fortified with the critical
vitamins and minerals your cows need during
early lactation. This special nutritional package
boosted production by over two and half pounds
of milk per day during the first 90 days. That
translates to 460 pounds more milk over the
entire lactation. ___
Trials conducted
with 983 cows in
45 Northeastern
herds
2. Reduces cases of cystic ovaries
over 30%
4.4%
Cows fed
FresfvCow Pius
Fresh Cow Plus also helps minimize another
stress related problem—cystic ovaries. In tests,
cows fed Fresh Cow Plus developed 32% fewer
cases of cystic ovaries than the control group.
That means better reproductive performance
