[QUOTE="1wlimo, post: 1314101, member: 16646"] There are annual mixtures that will raise AUM to 4, and it is not as simple as a straight feed calculation. Making corn silage requires an investment in machinery, and storage. This financial consideration means that corn silage ground has to carry more stock to cover the increased costs. Pushing dairy cows to higher yields to reduce costs leads delays in reproduction, feet problems, udder problems, metabolic disorders, and general shorter life span. Also housing, and machine costs. Grazed milk production using a small framed cow such as a Jersey have a lower cost per unit of milk produced over time. UK 1920's people could not make money, guy invented the milking bail, milked his cows in the pasture made money at the same low milk price. Same applies today, so why complicate things. [/QUOTE]
