Iowa's Top Cow at Ruthven sets record march 1
Ruthven area dairy records show Chapman herd producing over 28 000 pounds of milk and 1140 pounds of butterfat. Dairyman Donald Voelker credits management that began with Chapman's personal touch, noting only four culls in 15 years and strong disease control. The herd, now 19 cows, has been on production testing since it started, aiding feeding, management and breeding decisions. Chapman joined the 400 Club, a four year old Iowa State College honor.
