The Cow Model utilises current herd details which in turn enables Optifeed to ration the whole herd and deliver feed advice for milking heifers, second calvers and older cows across all stages of lactation.
Dry NIR forage analysis is a good starting point and the results are automatically downloaded into the program for improved accuracy. The ration is then built from a library of Total Feeds and daily synchronisation ensures all ingredients and product specifications are live and accurate.
The ability to ration dairy, dry cows and heifers in the same area of the program and record feed efficiency of the milking ration at each ration change enables our customers to get greater overall efficiency.
