Recently, Paulden Farm in New Enterprise, Bedford County, installed a
circular 10 foot by 70-foot concrete manure pit with the help of the local con
servation district and the Chesapeake Bay Foundation. Paulden Farm
farms about 210 acres (190 tillable) and milks about 84 head of registered
Holstelns. The farm maintains about 60 head of replacement stock. They
milk from a double-4 herringbone parlor, and DHIA averages are 21,600
pounds milk, 650 pounds protein, and 725 pounds fat. They’ve used a TMR
mixer for quite a few years. Twenty-six years ago, Paul’s father purchased
the dairy, and Paul took over the operation about 10 years ago. He farms
with wife Karen and children Stephanie, 19; Megan, 15; and Kimberly, 10,
with help from hired labor, including Keith Brown, full-time and Doug Ken
nedy, part-time.
