I’m as interested as the next guy in what researchers are doing to improve the alfalfa varieties on the market today. But sometimes, I think seed companies forget that more leaves or better disease resistance by themselves don’t produce more milk. The bottom line is pounds of nutrients per acre. That’s why I plant Multi-plier alfalfa from Jacques. Sure it’s a multileaf and has good winter-hardiness and terrific disease resistance. But all that says to | me is that Multi-plier has the 1 potential to produce more pounds of J nutrients per acre on my farm. . | I look at my com silage hybrids , J the same way. So I also plant a lot i M of 7970 from Jacques. Yes, it’s big $ and leafy and yes, it makes a lot of grain and fits my operation. But my analysis only measures total digestible nutrients and that’s what I’m looking for. I’m open to new alfalfa varieties and silage com hybrids, but only if they’ll deliver more pounds of nutrients per acre than my Jacques* Multi-plier and 7970. ; com • soybean* • alfalfa sorghum • sunflowers A DIVISION OF AGRK3ENETICS COMPANY Prescott, WI 54021 1-800-321-2867 "Doing what works for you ." ® Jacques is a brand name numbers Identify varieties © 1992 Jacques Seed Company Danville • Paul Zeager 717-437-2067 Easton Paul Smith 216-688-8262 Kunkletown Northampton Dennis Smale Edward Werner 717-629-2493 215-262-6552 *\v u vij "M Lititz Nevin Kegerreis 717-626-5469 New Jersey Central and North Jersey .
