Farm guidance notes dairy production declines due to heat and flies. Pasture grazing weakens with lower protein, so temporary forages like lespedeza and sudan grass or silage with higher protein grain (20 percent) are advised. Increase grain as pasture declines, provide shade and water, eliminate fly breeding, and keep stalls clean with weekly manure removal.
