Robersons switch to Grade A dairy on Mt Hope farm

Assistant County Agent James Pitts notes the Robersons on Mt Hope Route 1 converted their dairy herd to Grade A production with a modern milking parlor and bulk storage. Leonard Roberson and sons Bill and L O began the change in October, building stanchions at about 25 each and saving costs by DIY work. The farm keeps a Holstein Jersey mix, grows most feed, and faced dry weather affecting clover. They reduced the beef herd from 50 registered Hereford cows to 17 heifers to focus on dairy expansion.
