A Rural New Yorker writer notes hay quality strongly affects cow milk yield. Switching from poor wet hay to high quality hay boosted production from 140 to 165 quarts daily, while a friend saw cows drop from 32 to 16 pounds after changing to poorer hay. He aims for three tons per acre with mixed grasses but finds quality hay crucial and cheaper blue grass mixes superior for feeding.
