Dairy Feeding Rules For High Milk Yield
Dairy facts advise adding salt to all grain mixes at 4 to 2 percent of weight. Potatoes can be used with greens, though excess reduces milk quality. Cut green corn or sorghum for mill cows from pastures. Increase grain gradually after calving, up to ten pounds daily until a week before calving, with alfalfa hay. Feed palatable grains like corn, oats, bran, and linseed to match cow appetite for maximum milk.
