Protein feeds keep milk flow up in fall
Saskatchewan livestock expert Erle Roger says to counter diminishing pasture value in mid to late summer with a protein supplement grain mix for dairy cows. Use one pound of 32 percent protein supplement with four to eight pounds grain, or one to four when pasture is very poor, and adjust ratios as pasture quality changes to maintain milk production into late fall and early winter. Regular milking and culling of poor producers with replacements calving in September and October help sustain output when fluid milk prices rise.
