Lancaster
Dairy
Days
LANCASTER (Lan
caster Co.) Lancas
ter Dairy Days will be
held Feb. 20 and
March 6, 9:30 a.m. to
2:30 p.m. at the Lan
caster Farm and Home
Center.
The theme for the
first day is “Getting
Fresh Cows Off To A
Good Start.” In to
day’s competitive busi
ness environment and
during periods of tight
profit margins it is im
perative that cows be
healthy and produc
tive. How well a cow
does in her lactation
depends greatly upon
the care she receives in
the months prior to
and after calving.
Dr. Robert J. Vart-
Saun, of the Veteri
nary Science Depart
ment at Penn State,
will explain how nutri
tion and management
affect cows’ health,
milk production, con
ception rates, and
profits. He will have
numerous tips for
managing heifers, dry
cows, closeup cows
and recently fresh
cows to help them
have a productive and
profitable lactation.
Good quality forage
is also important in the
management of these
transition cows. Dr.
Ariyn Heinrichs, Dairy
and Animal Science
Department at Penn
State, will talk about
physical and chemical
factors that affect for
age quality and cow
performance. He will
discuss the effect of
processing on digesti
bility, plus the effect of
particle size, molds,
and mycotoxins on
rumen function, cow
health and production.
The event is being
conducted by Penn
