Vincent Promotes Lead-Feeding for County Dairymen
County extension director Gene Vincent encourages a lead feeding program to boost and sustain milk production in Bremer county dairy herds. The approach, defined by H. H. Jack Van Horn, targets high energy feeding late in the dry period and early lactation, with grain allowances rising to 20 pounds daily during peak production and adjustments based on fat content and production drops. Herds may split into high and low energy groups to maintain profitability.
