Feeding Cows Individually To Optimise Milk, Butterfat, Protein And Body Weight (BCS)
We subscribe to the idea: "The only universal truth in dairy farming is – there is no universal truth" Every farm is as unique as the operator, with its own strengths and weaknesses. Every cow is an individual, each with its own genetic ability, body size, metabolism, etc. Our goal is to dry all cows off with a body condition score of 3.5 (scale 1-5), and to calve them down with the same score. We also aim to maximise pasture and forage utilization. Click here to read the full article by Nigel Lok.
Testimonial
Een van ons beste boerdery besluite tot op hede was om ‘n Waikato-Rockwood draaitafel te laat installeer. Die kundige en behulpsame span van Waikato het die hele proses vergemaklik en glad laat verloop. Ons planne is spesiaal ontwerp en geteken om aan ons persoonlike smaak en behoeftes te voldoen. Die nuwe Afimilk weergawe 5 voedings sagteware en professionele bystand van die Afi span stel ons instaat om ons koeie baie meer koste effektief en akkuraat te voer. Die Waikato kloustukke tesame met die Impulse Air speenhulse verminder speenglip en verbeter ons koeie se speen gesondheid. Dit is ‘n absolute plesier om in ons nuwe Waikato draaitafel te melk.
