IT TO A SEED COMPANY
A year ago, we introduced Full Time™ forage. A
remarkable new feedstuff that can dramatically
boost a herd's milk production. Now, a year later,
university trials show that feeding Full Time to top
producers on a high-fiber diet can increase their
already high production levels by as much as 10%
So, if you're feeding a high-fiber ration, consider
Full Time. Nothing can match its digestibility, forage
quality or increased milk production. No wonder we
say it's the biggest thing to hit dairy since automa-
tion. To learn more about Full Time or any of our other

that will provide the consumer
with what they ultimately want,
a convenient, consistent, and
high quality product.”
