Feeding between 11kg and 12kg. 6 in tmr,6 in parlour. It soon adds up. We've a mindset that were getting a good price but it's really volume that drives income. I spend little,I've no machinery drip and maybe making a profit because of depreciation and not investi g enough. Who knows

Or alternatively
46l from 11.5kg would need 20l from silage!
11.5kg at .45 kg per litre is 25.5 litres
You don't get meal at that price anymore unless you've something more to tell us.
