Feed management is the practice of feeding cows for maximum production, performance, and reproduction, while reducing the amount of excess nutrients, particularly nitrogen and phosphorous, excreted in the manure by minimizing overfeeding of any one nutrient. Feed management can help reduce feed costs by feeding nutrients more efficiently and importing less feed onto a farm. In turn, the reduction of manure nutrient content can result in the need for less land to effectively meet ones nutrient balance. Hear Dr. Joe Harrison talk about dairy feed management from a whole farm perspective. In addition, he talks about NRCS cost share opportunities for those interested in developing and/or receiving funds to help implement a Feed Management Plan by looking at cow nutrition, feed, and crop indicators.
