Above, mechanical harvesting of
forage for the dairy herd is per
mitting many farmers to boost
production without adding more
land. By keeping cows in dry-lot
they're able to harvest about
25% to 30% more forage per acre
than when using various graz
ing methods. Cows don't have a
chance to trample and waste
grass. Also you can control the
forage production to provide top
quality forage.
Symbolical of the improved
breeding available through
artificial insemination, this
ampule of frozen semen is the
transmitter of improved dairy
characteristics. Artificial
breeding is used on 50 percent
of the nation's dairy herds on
more than one-third of the
milking cows.
Above, in the new Ton
ganoxie pipeline system,
both the vacuum and
milk lines are washed at
the same time—in place
—after every milking.
Washing and sanitizing
solutions are slugged
through the entire sys
tem in a continuing flow.
The diagram shows the
Tonganoxie system
hooked up for washing.
Changeover is simple—
hooking up the manifold,
moving milk discharge
pipe from bulk tank to
wash tank, and setting
up milk-pump trap for
vacuum washing. Then
open a valve—throw a
switch—and wash.
Left, complete produc
tion records on each cow
in the milking string are
as essential as a milking
machine or bulk milk
tank on today's modern
dairy farms. Electronic
machines for keeping
records are coming in
to use. Management
groups, sometimes under
the supervision of col
leges, are being set up to
make such systems prac
tical for the farmer.
