Reed DAIRY HERD AND PROFITABILITY PROGRAMS Purina Dairy Research has developed three milking programs designed to fit varying economic conditions found on today's dairy farms. Obviously, the program best suited for a particular dairy operation depends on many factors but the most important factor by far is the type, quality and amount of roughage available to feed. The following programs were designed to fit these roughage considerations. Challenge or Lead Feeding Program. For areas where milk prices make heavier grain feeding more profitable even though roughages are the most economical source of nutrients. Feeding According to Production Program. For areas of low milk prices where roughages are the most economical source of nutrients. Limited Roughage Feeding Program. Follow this program when the milking ration is a more economical source of nutrients than available roughages. Milk price is not an important factor in considering this program. JOHN J.

You ask what is the difference between ingredient and Chow quality control. This ingredient quality control has to do with the nature of each individual component of a Chow. When these are all blended together into a Chow, then we may talk about items relative to Chow quality control. These may be particle size, uniformity in mixing, fat addition, or laboratory proximate analyses (protein, fat, fiber, etc.). uctf ACCOMPLISH YOUR DAIRY HERD GOALS Grain Exchange - Hammermilling on the Farm (Purina dairy concentrates) - Roughage Analysis by Purina Research 900 - Trained Field Representatives to Develop a Balanced Nutrition Program - Complete Purina Dairy Feeds Trucked Fresh to you from Harrisburg - Complete Line of Competitively Priced Dairy Health Products and Programs.
