This is critical to profitability since each additional pound at peak equals 200 pounds over the course of the lactation. per month The appropriate Master Mix Density Plus Nutrient Pac along with Multiphase and gram will help maintain maximum milk production. jjl The cow continues her .natural decline in production during the final 24 weeks of lactation. However, her appetite stays strong, and she can consume more feed than needed to maintain her lower production level. Feed cost can be cut by keeping feed intake in line with milk pro duction. Density Plus Nutrient Pacs are not normally needed during this phase. Proper feeding during Phase 111 minimizes the amount of gram needed during the dry cow period. Phase 4 Proper feeding during this eight week period reduces disorders such as overfat cows, off feed, displaced abomasum, calving difficulty, and retained placenta. For most cows, average or good quality roughage supple mented with the proper amount and balance of minerals is an adequate diet Cows that are in poor body condition may need ' = * II additional grain ration to build body reserves. To prepare the dry cow for her next lactation, start feeding the milking ration two weeks before calving.
