    “Our cows have increased in milk production to
22,408 since coming on the AIM program in April of
1998. We use some BST, but not on high peaking cows.
It had been over 2 years since any of our cows had
peaked over 120 lb. milk per day. We now have cows
over that level and are holding higher production longer.
Our March 1998 test was 70 lb. milk at 155 Days in
milk. Our March 1999 test was 72.3 lb. milk at 187 Days
in Milk!
We are especially happy with the increase in our
herd average. The forages we are feeding this year, just
aren’t as good as last year’s. The ability to customize

the AIM to our specific forages has helped us to keep
production increasing.
In addition to the custom AIM supplement and AIM
top dress milking herd, we are using the total
UItraJUUUKt calf, heifer, and dry cow -grams. We
are very happy with the new Ultra ßAtflNCl- calf starter.
Calves start eating it earlier and reany take off.
We are very happy with the service from Sensenig’s
Feed Mill.
