What is
Custom Peed
Programming?
Custom feed programming is feeding recommendations tailored to meet
the exact needs of your dairy herd. Its purpose is to help you attain top perf
mance and maintain balanced nutrition
It starts with your cows. Their breed, weight, and milking potential are
criteria used to determine their nutrient requirements. Next, the nutritive
value and feeding rates of your home grown hay, silage, and
grains are determined. Finally, the selection of the right
young’s premix is made to fortify your ration with the proper
amounts of calcium, phosphorus, vitamins, and trace minerals im
portant to good nutrition.
Once your custom feed program is set, your young’s feed man
agement representative will deliver the freshest possible product at
regular intervals and will continually monitor your program's perfor
mance. The personalized service from your feed management
representative will help you get every ounce of value out of your home
grown feeds.
For more information about custom feed programming for your
herd, contact your young's representative or write to: young’s inc.,
