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., R.D.#l, Box 71, Roaring Spring, PA 16673. ©1983, young’s ' Livestock Nutritional Services 57.0072.00; Standard ft Good 105- 125 lbs. 50.0055.00; 70100 lbs. 40.00 48.00; Utility 5565 lbs. 20.0039.00.
