How to provide for a balanced rumen

A well balanced rumen is important because it provides the basis for a cow to function well. As we all know, healthy well-functioning cows have an optimal milk production with proper milk solids. Furthermore, animals that look healthy and that produce milk easily contribute to the dairy farmer's work satisfaction. One of our Dutch Dairy Specialist gives an insight on how to establish this.

Stimulate the efficiency of phosphates and minerals

In Europe dairy farmers are limited in their business management by the phosphate regulations introduced on 2 July 2015. If they want to grow without purchasing extra land or extra phosphate rights, they simply have to produce more milk per kilogramme of phosphate. This requires a careful strategy, which may vary from one company to the next.
