Minimum in Feeding Station.

 

Now, instead of the total liters of milk being fixed, the number of cows you can have are fixed.

For this reason, the importance of getting the most milk per cow becomes relevant.

More milk means more feed from e.g. concentrate.

However, the VMS cannot give all feed, thus it also becomes important to look at the feed trough and the feeding station .  Make sure you have the amounts and settings set right for optimal using.

Not too much, especially not per visit. The VMS must remain crucial.

If a cow goes to the VMS less than 2.5 times a day, then you have to ask yourself: “Does she deserve to get concentrate in the feeding station?”
