HERE'S WHY TDR COULD HELP YOUR HERD DO
AS WELL AS THE TEST COWS MENTIONED ABOVE.
THE AGWAY TDR Profile is a computer program
that picks the right combination of forage, grain and Agway
feeds to satisfy your cows’ nutrient requirements for main
tenance and to build towards top milk production. TDR con
siders the total protein, energy, calcium-phosphorus ratio and
fiber needs of your cows, plus the forage-to-grain ratio. Then it
shows you how to achieve iop income over feed costs.
RIGHT NOW is an opportune time to look into TDR.
Most of your cows have probably already freshened, or are due
to freshen soon. Milk production will be climbing. And with the
right feed program, it can climb even higher. What’s more,
forage quality has varied widely this year. So it’s a good idea to
evaluate your feed program thoroughly and take steps to
correct any inefficiencies.
ONE OF THE MOST important elements in a Total
Ration program is Ratio: Right feeds... a line of feeds in
the ratio of energy to protein has been carefully selected
lance the feedstuffs produced on your farm.
UR LOCAL AGWAY will help you choose the
Ratio:Right feed for your herd.

NET INCOME PER
YEAR PER COW?
Recent Agway research with 338 cows showed
that a program based'on a Total Dairy Ration
(TDR) Profile increased milk production 500
pounds per cow, per year.
At the same time, it decreased feed costs and
raised net income by $ 65 per cow, per year.
