Kurtz Maintains 34th Herd By Forage Feeding Tactics
Lancaster Farming reports Jacob L Kurtz of Elizabethtown maintains a 500 pound butterfat herd average using a forage heavy winter program. His Holsteins receive corn silage home grown grain alfalfa hay and alfalfa grass clover hay with molasses to encourage roughage intake and stomach bacteria health. Each animal gets about two pounds daily of a high carbohydrate supplement to control costs.
