Stottlemyer Builds For Better Dairy Stock And Management
On the Stottlemyer farm the milking herd sits in a stable expanded to 42 head with plans to fill empty stalls with replacement heifers raised on site. The farmer stresses high welfare for calves and heifers as they are the future, and keeps detailed soil tests and fertilizer records to guide costs. He advocates using seed varieties, cooperatives, and efficient time and labor use to raise milk per acre rather than per cow, aided by veteran training program cow records.
