Small Herds Too! No herd is too large or small to receive attention and individualized feeding programs from Purina. Take these three Amish farms in Lancaster County. You could call them small farms in size, but certainly not small in production from their cows that are fed with Punna’s feeds and feeding programs. All three farms are on DHIA, all have a Gordonville address in Lancaster County, and all are within the High Bros mill market area. Even more important, all three herds have increased their production significantly since they were featured in this ad seven months ago on June 7, 1997 At Double L Farm, 45 Holstems average 25,073 m. J. Richard Kolb, Purina Dairy Specialist, seated, and Douglas High, from High Bros., check DHIA records of their Amish customers. That’s up 3,352 m since the June ad report. They feed Purma’s Proteus and Super EXT Many cows exceed 100 pounds of milk per day, and the most recent daily herd average is 82 1 pounds The Amishman said Proteus feeds are good for the environment and our soils. “I was excited to hear from Punna’s Research Farm that urinary nitrogen is reduced 20 to 30 percent.” Up the road at King Ridge Farm 56 homebred Registered Holstems have a rolling herd average of 24,468 m. That’s up 2,313 pounds from the June ad report Their latest daily herd average is 85.3 pounds. The feeding ration is built around flake feed and Super EXT topdress King Ridge is a long time customer and says Purina feeds perform well.
