Alfalfa and othar legume crops have a coating of wax.
While this coating Is a natural protection for the growing
plant, It Is an Inhibitor to moisture loss in field curing and
to feed utilization in the digestive system of ruminant
animals. The presence of this coating of wax also makes
the hay stem brittle and less palatable to livestock.
CHOICE
Swather's Choica 'washes off the outside waxy coating
of alfalfa, allowing for the water inside the plant to
evaporate more rapidly than In untreated hay. Swather’s
Choice is actually a soap that Is safe for livestock con*
sumption and won't affect palatabillty.
In atudlas at Michigan State University, hay treated with
the Ingredients In Swather'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
par day.
Unlike conventional granular drying agents, Swather's
Choice is a liquid chemical hay conditionar. 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.
