At Cashton Farm Supply (CFS), our efforts are dedicated to developing rations that can help dairy herds produce the most milk at the lowest cost.....that's optimum production. We believe dairies need feeding programs that offer nutrient flexibility and cost effectiveness.
To achieve optimal milk production and good milk components requires a well-balanced ration.
Think Amino Acids, Not Protein Dairy cows require specific quantities of absorbed amino acids, not protein. It is well established that the two most limiting amino acids for milk production are lysine and methionine.
Manage Nutrients to Cut Waste One of the major goals of on-farm Nutrient Management Plans has been to reduce nitrogen in surface water. To reduce fecal nitrogen output requires a reduction in nitrogen consumption. This is achievable, without negative consequences on milk production, provided the quality of consumed protein and amino acid balance of the ration are monitored.
