“Once we got the water and fertility right, it seemed genetics was holding our growers back, but as we have moved to varieties like 429, growers are getting more dairy quality hay and upping their yields too.”
Eli Bailey
Seed Manager, Bingham Coop
Blackfoot, ID
“We’re on a three cut system and tonnage is big-time for us. That’s why we moved to AFX 469 from another Alforex variety. From the looks of this 160-acre field we’ll be getting the yield bump from this Hi-Ton alfalfa we were looking for.”

“This is our first field of Hi-Gest and it’s doing well. The first three crops are testing better than neighboring circles of competitive varieties. So far we like what we see.”
Mike Nielson
Columbia View Farm
Basin City, WA
“We heard about Hi-Gest® three years ago and wanted to see what it could do. Our first field did 2.8 tons on first crop this year with a 55+ TDN. We produce for export and the hay sold fast.”
Travis Gallagher
Gallagher Farms
Eureka, NV
“This is our third year with Hi-Gest and we’re seeing a steady increase in the haylage digestibility numbers from our bunkers.”

“Quality is everything for us and Hi-Gest 360 in our mixture is working great for us and our hay customers. We’re adding more acres again this year.”
Dan Miller

“The performance is all there with AFX 469 and nutritionally, we could tell when we hit it in the silo.”
Steve & Shelly Becker
Git-R-Done Farm
Auburndale, WI
“We have been planting Hi-Gest since 2016 and after the summer of 2018 we’re 100% Hi-Gest. Our nutritionist has found Hi-Gest easy to work with and we like the higher quality and harvest flexibility when we need it. The cows have responded as well.”
Terry Spindler
Spindler Farms
Elkhart Lake, WI
“We keep our fields of Hi-Gest® in separate barns. When we deliver to our dairy customers, we tell them it’s Hi-Gest so they can adjust their ration to the higher feed values. One of our customers wants it for the hot months to keep his cows feed intake up and hold his milk production. Hi-Gest 360 really works for our operation and
hay customers.”
