Presence of cow justified on NC farms for soil health
North Carolina farm expert John A. Arey argues that maintaining dairy cows supports soil fertility, prevents erosion, and provides grazing profits. He notes crop-only farms deplete soil nutrients, while well-managed dairies accumulate manure nutrients and improve pasture quality, stabilizing farm income and sustainability.

Size and Development of Heifer for Breeding
Not only the breed, but also the size and development of the dairy heifer must be taken into consideration in determining the age at which to breed. Large heavy breeds maturing slowly should be bred to freshen at 27 to 30 months, faster maturing breeds at 24 to 27 months. If a heifer is oversized or underdeveloped, delay breeding for a few months to reach satisfactory size before calving.

Digestible Protein in Grain Ration for Cows
The more alfalfa or clover hay a cow eats, the less protein she requires in her grain mix. A cow on hay only needs 12 to 123 percent of digestible protein in the grain. Suitable mixtures include 200 pounds corn with 100 pounds each of oats, wheat bran and linseed meals, or 10 pounds each of corn oats and wheat bran and 150 pounds of gluten.
Calves Raised on Grass Lane Pasture Practices
Farmers on Grass Lane keep calves under nine months on grain skim milk and hay before switching to pasture. Successful dairymen emphasize initial grain and hay feeding for well grown heifers before relying solely on grass for feed.
