The farm
- 90 lactating dairy cows (Fleckvieh breed)
- Average herd output: 9,000 litres
- 4.3% fat
- 3.6% protein
The goal
- Improved digestibility of the basic feed
- Higher intake of basic feed
- Improved fitness of the herd
Usage
- 150 g JOSERA DairyPilot®
- Can be fed throughout lactation and the dry period
- Ration composition: grass and corn silage in a 60:40 ratio, coarse grain, soybean/rapeseed meal
- 150 g of JOSERA CamiCal are added to the feed
The success
A shortage of staple feed meant that the proportion of concentrated feed in the ration had to be significantly increased. DairyPilot® was used as a buffering agent and helped to balance out the adjustment. The feed intake increased and the animals became fitter. What’s more, the milk yield rose by 900 litres, with stable cell counts.
The statement
“With DairyPilot® my herd remains healthy and productive, even if there are challenges at times. I have appreciated the good expert advice from Josera for years and, in addition to DairyPilot®, I also use other products in the areas of milk substitutes, silage additives and mineral feed.”
