Fulltime" has top herd
WORKING OVERTIME.
Five years ago, Jacob Tanis believed
"corn silage is corn silage," recalls
Russ Judy, his Young's nutritionist. Then
Tanis of Centre Hall, PA, tried Cargill
FQ silage hybrids and increased milk
production by 6,000 pounds per cow
over a four-year period. Now he's taken
another step to higher-quglity feed with
FullTime'" Forage from Cargill.
Thanks to feeding high-quality silage
and other good management practices,
the Tanis herd last year was the state's
top milk-producing herd, with a herd
average of 31,393 pounds, according
to DHIA data and was rated the
highest for type in its size range by the
Pennsylvania Holstein Association. 1
When Judy suggested that Tanis try
new Cargill Full Time forage, he was
receptive. He was sold on Cargill
hybrids and he trusted Judy's judgment
Tanis gives Judy a lot of credit for his
success with Full Time forage. "Russ
does a good job of helping me feed
my herd," Tonis says.
His confidence proved well-founded
in 1996 Tonis saw a milk production
increase of 6 pounds per cow per day
with 96 cows on test with Full Time
forage. There also was a noticeable
improvement in the body condition
Maybe it's time you took a closer look. Cows that consurm
Full Time forage in a high-forage diet produced as much as or mor
corrected milk than cows on normal corn silage in a high-grain di
Ed Nimtz, Cargill forage product manager. "We believe dairymei
Jake Tanis will demonstrate to the industry that Full Time can increi
income per acre by increasing the amount of milk you get per poi
feed. Full Time forage, when properly managed, has the potential
5 to 1 return on investment. Even a one-pound increase in milk pi
will cover the increased investment for Full Time forage," Nimtz so'

increase in MSU study.
The big difference between
Full Time” forage and
conventional corn hybrids
is their relative level of
digestible fiber. Digestible
fiber is a primary factor
influencing milk production.
Full Time forage contains
nearly 40 percent less
indigestible lignin Cows fed
diets containing this new
forage product consumed
more dry matter and pro
duced more milk. In two
university studies, 2 cows fed
Full Time forage consumed
up to 8 percent more dry
matter and produced up to
72 more pounds of milk
per day. And body condition
scores were maintained
or improved.

of the cows, Tonis soys.
Tonis planted 10 acres of Full Time
forage in 1996, 20 acres in 1997
and intends to plant 30 to 35 acres
next year.
This year, Full Time forage yielded as
well as - or better than - other silage
corn despite extremely dry weather,
Tanis says. He estimates production at
15 to 20 tons per acre.
"Full Time forage can give top returns
with best management practices,
and obviously Mr. Tanis gave it close
attention," comments Dan Froehlich,
Cargill agronomic services manager
Dr. Froehlich recommends that
dairymen plant Full Time forage after
soils have thoroughly warmed up.
"You should expect late-season growth
spurts with Full Time, so be sure there's
plenty of nitrogen available, perhaps
by side-dressing. And be sure to plan
harvesting based strictly on percent
moisture content - 66 to 70 percent
for bunker silos," he advises
"I'm extremely pleased with Full Time
forage. I've never fed silage that I
could get as much milk out of," he
says. "I would recommend it to any
producer who wants to produce milk
cost-effectively.
