Konefal Feeding Method Gains Ground With Area Cattle and Sheep
Canadian innovator’s feeding schedule for cows near calving is reported to save calves and extend daylight lambing. In Pomona, Leon Chriestenson ropes ewes to lamb by shifting feed times, yielding a 140 percent lamb crop across 150 ewes and broader success on 400 ewes. Princeton farmer Leroy Wasmund notes no night calving this winter and says AI breeding is producing unusually large calves due to high quality feed last year.
