Alfalfa and othar legume crops hava a coating of wax. While this coating Is a natural protection for tha growing plant, It Is an Inhibitor to moisture loss in field curing and to teed utilization in tha digestive system of ruminant animals. The presence of this coating of wax also makes the hay stem brittle and lass palatable to livestock. Swathar's Choice 'washes off* the outside waxy coating of alfalfa, allowing for the water Inside tha plant to evaporate more rapidly than In untreated hay. Swathar's Choice is actually a soap that Is safe for livestock con sumption and won't affect payability. In studies at Michigan State University, hay treated with tha Ingredients In Swathar's Choice had higher protein and lower fiber. In a further study at Utah State Uni versity, cows consumed 2.2 pounds more treated hay per day. Unlike conventional granular drying agents, Swathar's Choice Is a liquid chemical hay conditioner. It is easily tank mixed with water and requires only fifteen gallons per acre in most applications, compared with the con ventional products that are normally applied at 30 gallons per acre.
