Proper Feeding For Dairy Heifers Advised By Farm Adviser
Jefferson county farm adviser Don Lee emphasizes strong feeding for dairy heifers to boost future milking herd production. He notes 100 extra pounds of growth can yield 400 to 900 more pounds of milk over a cow’s productive life, with 9 to 24 month old heifers needing good roughage, silage, and occasional grain. Fat heifers breed poorly and produce less. The St Johns River in Florida is the only major U S river flowing north.
