He feels it’s been a very wise move financially. “I had all my feed delivered, other than silage. Now I’ll buy corn and barley cheaper, at harvest, and save on hauling and grind ing. My initial cost, operating cost, and maintenance cost are all low. I expect this machine will pay for itself in a year.” “It’s a pretty handy machine. It’s all automatic, so it doesn’t cre ate any extra work. And it’s not dusty like a roller mill because it’s all enclosed.” Give us a call to learn how an AFS hammer mill will work on your dairy operation. gßv automatic farm systems 608 Evergreen Rd., Lebanon, PA 17042 [ill (717)274-5333 Weekly New York Egg Market Northeast Quotes From Fri, Dec. 9 to Thursday, Dec. 15 FRI.
