WE DESIGN YOUR
DAIRY RATION
TO MEET YOUR NEEDS.
amfield’s new Mt. Joy feed mill has a feed production line specifically designed by Pennfield to produce PFR (Precision For
ulated Rations) custom formulated dairy feeds balanced for each dairyman’s feeding program. This customized ration will be
dieted to prevent separation of vitamins and minerals from the feed ingredients. The ration will be balanced to meet specific
eds such as PROTEIN, BY-PASS PROTEIN, MINERALS, STARCH LEVEL, ADDED FAT, NDF (Neutral Deter
nt Fiber), ADF (Acid Detergent Fiber), PALATABILITY, TOTAL RATION DENSITY, and FEEDING PROGRAM
HOFIT ABILITY.
Use 2- feed system for milk cows. Fresh cows get high
density feed for peak lactation, and tail enders are fed
least cost ration.
Increase forage feeding to lower producing cows -
this will reduce amount of feed needed to balance
program.
Don’t keep extra benefits - it costs approximately $3OO
per year to feed each heifer. Milking cows x 60% gives
you total number of heifers birth to fresh. Example 50 milk
cows x 60% = 30 heifers total.

Mt. Joy Mill - Built To Meet YOUR Needs
Work on a better growing program for the generally
neglected yearling heifer. Bigger “spring of rib” heifers will
eat more forage and give a bigger milk check during their
first lactation. Heifers need to average 15,000-16,000 lbs.
of milk for their first lactation.
Use NPN (non-protein nitrogen) to reduce protein
costs in mid to late lactation dairy rations.
Reduce overhead- rented ground and poorly utilized
equipment can be costly. It generally pays to grow your
forages, but look at using custom services for silo filling.
