ROLLING HERD
AVERAGE 23,000 LBS.
For this Chester County dairy farm, the family in family
farm is really obvious. Not only do Samuel and Marian
Stoltzfus take a special interest in their cows, their three
children, Jay Richard 13, Beverly 12, and Andrea 7, do
too. Checking the DHIA records to see how their favorite
cows are doing or checking calf ID reports to anticipate
future cow family possibilities are all part of what these
Stoltzfus youths call fun.
Milking 71 registered and grade Holsteins under the
Chester-Plane prefix, rolling herd average production is
at 23,000 pounds of milk with individual records to
35,000 pounds. Right now, the herd is being moved to a
modern dairy barn that sits on 13 acres between route
30 and the main road into Coatesville. The Stoltzfus
family started to buy the dairy herd 15 years ago and
now they have purchased their farm. They also rent 300
acres for crop production and nutrient management.

ATMR feeding program now utilizes
Purina’s Proteus concentrate and high
moisture corn. Samuel is especially
pleased with Purina feeds and service.
“I have fed Purina feeds all my life to
all my dairy animals from calves,
heifers, and dry cows to the milking
herd,” Samuel said. I wouldn’t feed
anything else. I’m satisfied with
production and have no complaints
about service.
“I have also visited their research
farm and this farm gives the company
a great advantage. Whenever they
have a feed it has been tested before
it is put on the market. They don’t try it
out on you. It’s down pat before it gets
to the farmer.”
Purina representative Doug High
says it is a real pleasure to work with
the young Stoltzfus family because it
has been the cows that have paid the
bills and allowed them to buy the herd
and now buy a farm. The Stoltzfus
family is quick to give credit to others
and the Lord for the support they have
received along the way.
