Allie Messer of Chutc Inn Maryland argues at University of Delaware Farm and Home Week that dairying can pay with efficient management. He stresses profit depends on production per man and per cow, noting rising land and feed costs and scarce labor.
Associate county agent Victor Plastow warns there is insufficient data to prove dairy cows balance protein intake with free choice liquid protein feeding. He cites studies showing wide variation with some cows consuming up to 12 to 15 pounds daily, while others eat little or none, and calls for more data before recommendation.
Messer argues large dairies boost output per worker showing a single milker can handle 125 cows versus 18 in the past. He urges ten months storage for drought, favors high moisture corn silage, and says sealed storage made cheaply with plastic works well. He notes less vacation time and the need for tight management with a $900 per stall parlor.
The Butler StorNFeed offers up to 1128 tons of oxygen free storage for corn silage or 620 tons for low moisture silage with a maintenance free breathing system. It features no breather bags, no relief valves, a top unloader, and a bright white finish that minimizes heat and gas expansion. This system unloads faster than bottom unloaders with low horsepower and low upfront costs, plus deferred payment and leasing options.
