Lower feed

production
“...Along with feeding
less protein , our herd
average and fat increased
significantly.”
Mixed herd averages

milk for Holsteins
and 14,100 for Jerseys
on Master Mix Protek
Rodney says, "We started feeding Master Mix ProTek 25
three years ago and have been increasing our production
ever since. Master Mix ProTek helps keep cost in line,
while we work for higher production. Six months ago I
tried a conventional 38% concentrate. In three days we
saw a drop in milk
and test, so we’re
back to Master Mix
ProTek to stay."

When John Rhoades and his sons in Ligonier
switched to Master Mix ProTek two years
ago, the largest improvement they saw was
in butterfat. They’re getting six extra points,
which makes for a nice bonus on the milk
check.
Says John, "Since going to Master Mix
ProTek 1785 complete feed, I know we are
putting more money in the bank."

Robert and Helene Dreisback found Master Mix ProTek
reduced their feed cost while boosting milk production by
six pounds a day for their 87 cows.
We have been using Master Mix high energy feeds for
a long time with great results. We switched to a Master
Mix ProTek high energy feed to save $lO per ton. Along
with feeding less protein, our herd average and fat
increased significantly."
