ACH year, dairymen and poultrymen in G.L.F. territory feed 
about 9 million tons of digestible nutrients to their livestock and 
poultry. More than 614 million tons of those digestible nutrients are 
grown on Northeastern farms. Home-grown grains account for %4 
million tons. Roughage in the form of hay, grass and silage makes 
up all the rest. 
Good yields and low-cost home-grown feeds can not be produced 
without good seed. To produce the 72% of the feed nutrients they 
use, Northeastern farmers must have the very best seed that can 
possibly be secured. 
That is also why in G.L.F. first-rate importance is placed on the 
seed service. Actually more feed is produced from G.L.F. seed than 
is handled in the form of purchased feed by the G.L.F. Feed Service.
