I would be interested in hearing opinions on target milk yields of autumn calving cow calving September/October and going to grass last week of March early April depending on weather
After turnout in the spring Would you go for a higher yield where the cow gets grass and cake or lower yield and grass alone is enough to finish out lactation
Winter feeding is not a problem can be tmr or sheargrab grass silage at rail and cake in parlour
Milk is sold on volume
Minimum fat and protein 3.7 and 3.3
No payment for higher constituents
Interested in hearing opinions i run a 1 man show and keeping things fairly simple
