SHAWANO, Wi.— A Holstein
bull calf, acquired from the Pima
Lane Nikki Syndicate, Narvon, has
been released for sampling from
21st Century Genetics.
The nation’s largest, direct
member, farmer-owned cattle
breeding cooperative continued its
steady growth with an impressive
July sire summary including the
number one bull in the industry,
21H1567 Arlinda Mellow.
The newest offspring from the
full-service organization is
Cows. Crops. And a Scavenger®
spreader. The three essentials for higher
productivity and a more successful
farm operation.
Manure is money.
According to ag experts at the
University of Missouri, the average
dairy cow produces 70 pounds of
manure every day—up to 13 tons a
year. Worth about $5.00/ton, that
equates to $65.00 per cow a year. If
you own a 60-head herd that’s almost
$4,000 of free fertilizer. And in today’s
farm environment that adds up to big
savings.
Scavenger—good to your
crops, good to you.
To get the most from your manure you
need a spreader to efficiently manage
