Assessing Dairy Farm Records and Boarder Cows
A historical note outlines key questions for dairy operations including keeping accurate production records, selling low producing border cows defined as under 6000 pounds of 4 percent butterfat milk annually, growing abundant high quality roughage, maintaining a disease free herd, and selling high quality milk. Arnold highlights that profit stems from maximizing production per cow per acre and per worker, citing a Michigan study that shows potential 40 percent increases in output.

Home Grown Rations for Efficient Dairy Production
Arnold promotes feeding programs using largely home grown forages to boost dairy output. Target 90 percent home grown rations with cows bred for high milk production. Aim 26 pounds of 4 percent butterfat milk daily and 6000 pounds yearly, while reducing labor through milking parlors and labor-saving devices.
