MMI’s New Delivery Box Handles Distiller Grains
MMI announces a new line of delivery boxes designed to handle high concentrations of distiller grains. The new design addresses the stock industry’s on-going problems feeding dense, sticky distiller grains to their feeder cattle. While cost effective and high in nutrients, the grains cause problems by plugging equipment, leading to lost labor time and uneven feedout.

Is pleased to announce the launch of the QuickBayt® Spot Spray in smaller, more economical and convenient 24 fluid ounce spray bottle. This new size is great for smaller operations. The refillable 24 fluid ounce bottles contain three ounces of the powerful active ingredient imidacloprid in a dry powder that mixes easily with water for more efficient distribution. Users simply spray the product directly onto surfaces where house flies tend to rest, both indoors and outdoors, treating places conventional granular baits cannot reach.

It’s the silver anniversary of the National Dairy Promotion and Research Program . . . but even its supporters acknowledge these are not golden times for dairy producers.
“I think 90% of the dairy producers in the nation are dipping into their equity to stay afloat right now,” says Joe Lyon, a dairyman from Toledo, Iowa. “At this price per hundred pounds of milk, very, very few, if any, are making any money, paying their feed bills, their vet bills and everything. It’s tough, and it’s part of the whole economy…the dairy industry’s in a crisis right now.”
