Grain Feeding in Summer Boosts Milk and Profits
A historical note argues cows on pasture need grain and silage alongside grass to maintain flesh and milk. It cites a 1200 pound cow losing 150 pounds after a summer with only grass, attributing it to inadequate nourishment. Grain feeding year round is presented as key to higher profits and steady production across seasons.
Dairy Cattle Feeding and Management Tips
Farmers are advised to feed high producing cows three times daily and use efficient labor aids like litter carriers and manure spreaders. Rutabagas offer good cow feed, while water access and clean pasture prevent milk taint. For milk with 8 to 3.5 percent fat, give one pound of grain per four pounds of milk. manage fattening grain and silage for bulls to avoid slow breeding.
