Feed cost to make 100 lbs. of milk
is not magic. It is only a tool to help farmers get a true value
of their feed, and how to feed it accordingly. This true feed balance will
make more milk, higher butterfat, and better herd health. This all adds up to
more money in your bank account at the end of the year.
