Good feeding, care key to dairy herd profit
Goodvat and Bozeman discuss dairy herd success. Ex extension dairy specialist J O Treteven notes that high production requires not only good breeding but also proper feeding and year round management. If cows lack good calving starts or proper care, even quality animals underperform and should be culled when records show failure. Combining testing with feeding and management boosts herd improvement.
