HERE'S WHAT THEY'RE SAYING Bedford Dairy Herd Increases 14 lbs. of Milk on AminoTek... Through Summer Heat Wave!!! The Grubb’s were excited when their herd responded to AminoTek with a 17 lb. milk increase this spring. But when their herd responded with another 14 lb. increase when they started to feed an AminoTek based top dress...and during the hottest June on record, they couldn’t believe it. On their July 6 DHIA test, they had 21 of their 38 cows milking over 70 lbs.. Six were over 110 lbs., three over 120 lbs. and one was over 130 lbs.. Ray Grubb and his herdsman, Wendell Guyer, say that “The Master Mix AminoTek feed program has given us a great economical answer to some problems we were having. We have seen a terrific response in milk production, along with improved breeding and overall herd health. We also appreciate the thorough service we get from Gene Barefoot, our Master Mix District Sales Manager for Bedford and Blair Counties. He works very close with us and we’re really pleased."
