In a year’s time, that would add up to about 1000 pounds more milk per cow, based just on better udder stimulation. “If you have time to make money, you have time for proper milking practices,” the film pointed out. The bottom line is harvesting all the milk that a cow produces. Producers of the film also claimed that proper milking procedures save time, rather than taking extra time. 1 Gramclean'r* 2 Swmg-away hopper 3 Transports 4 Transfer auger 5 Distributing auger (or U-trough) 6 Bin sweep 7 Discharge auger with 25* angle powerhead NOT SHOWN GRAINLIFT* bucket elevator Bazooka augers offer a wide range of capacity, choice of drives and accessories for automated grain and feed handling.
