Holstein Type WE WANT TO HELP INCREASE YOUR PROFITSI Chemical Hay Conditioner When sprayed on alfalfa hay during cutting, the RAPID CURE mixture penetrates the waxy cutin layer on the stems, increasing the rate of water evaporation from the hay. RAPID CURE: 1. Reduces chance of rain damage 2. Improves the quality of hay 3. Gets hay off faster and allows more days for new hay crop to grow. RAPID CURE Doesn’t Cost...lt Pays!!! Both university and farm tests have proven RAPID CURE Chemical Hay Conditioner pays for itself. RAPID CURE will cost about $6.00 to $6.50 per acre. Applied as directed, RAPID CURE will increase hay yield by 120 to 130 lbs. per acre. This increased yield pays the cost of RAPID CURE.
