Sustainability is at the forefront of many conversations, especially in agriculture. While dairy contributes only 2% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, the industry’s scale is significant. If the U.S. dairy industry were a country, it would rank 49th globally in emissions.
This reality calls for a shift in how we approach dairy production, even if that means rethinking traditional practices. AgSource recently hosted a webinar with Dr. Kirby Krogstad from The Ohio State University to explore how optimizing dairy nutrition can enhance sustainability and profitability.
Quality feed is the foundation of a successful dairy operation. Dr. Kirby Krogstad suggests that reevaluating the use of starch, fat, and fiber in dairy rations, as well as the use of additives could reduce methane emissions while boosting your return on investment.
Use your resources. Analyzing a cow’s milk can help refine herd management and optimize nutritional strategies. AgSource’s RuminINSIGHT report offers an in-depth analysis of milk fatty acid composition, providing early insights into your herd’s rumen health and diet effectiveness – often before any issues are visibly apparent.
Sustainable and economic farming requires nb bn a commitment to ongoing learning and continuous improvement. Stay open-minded to new approaches and ask tough questions to identify the best opportunities for your dairy to operate more efficiently. Weigh the tradeoffs – will a change deliver a solid return on investment?
