Hay Guidelines For Dairy Cattle By Porter At Iowa State
Iowa State College dairy specialist Arthur Porter states three tons of high quality hay per dairy cow yearly, with three tons of silage replacing one ton of hay. For cows under milking age, about a ton and a half yearly. Porter urges roughage as core, reduces grain needs, and recommends outside rack feeding in good weather. He advises mixing poor quality hay with better roughage when scarce and using top hay for indoors during winter.
