A key Point that all nutrition advisers learn throughout the dairy nutrition advisor (DNA) training program is to observe your cows.
What do cows tell us? Some things with may look for are: do they lie down and chew their cud? How is their locomotion score? What is their behaviour at the feed bunk? What is their behaviour around the robots?
Taking the time to look over and watch your cows will help us see the overall health status of your herd and leads us to investigate, uncover and suggest nutrition and management solutions to help improve your profitability.
