“In November 1972 our rolling herd average was
12,534 lbs. milk and 497 lbs. fat and by November
1974 our rolling herd average is 17,401 lbs. milk and
667 lbs. fat. As of. December 26,1974 we are shipping
to Lehigh Valley 57.5 lbs., of milk per cow per day on
milking cows, 28 percent of which a re 2 year olds.
Agn King is not a bag of tricks 1 It is a tool like DHIA
We use both to maximize our net income and
minimize our losses.
The cost of any feeding program cannot be evaluated
simply by the cost per pound of milk produced. Other
factors that must be considered are: general health of
the herd, number of replacements needed yearly, and
other services included in the program.

Should we sell cows to bring our production down to
base pounds of milk or does it pay to ship surplus
milk? We find that there is more disposable income
per pound of milk from excess milk j£ the excess milk
is gotten from high producing cows fed a balanced
ration.
Note: We did not use the word profit because we do
not think there is any profit with the economic
situation in the dairy industry today if a farmer counts
all his costs.
No, Agn King hasn’t solved all our problems, but by
our experience we feel we are on the right track ”
