Byron and Lyla Miller of Prairie Farm Barron County keep a small 24 head Jersey herd that led state DHIA production with 13,302 pounds of milk and 653 pounds of fat. The couple, both in their 50s, credit discipline, timing and neighborly help from NYHT and SCS staff for their success and maintain a simple ration focused on linseed meal.
Byron Miller and Kenneth Seeger explain their top producing Jersey herd in Wisconsin. The Millers feed linseed meal with ground corn and minerals with no winter oats, and reward best cows with up to 32 pounds of 13 percent grain plus a 40 percent protein topdressing. They pasture in June then drylot with corn silage, avoid corn silage in winter, and hold several production trophies for the state’s top Jersey herd. Their Betty cow produced 17,364 pounds of milk as part of a family farming story lingering over years of effort.
