Autumn/Winter
The Autumn/Winter period is a crucial time of year for feed budgeting and cow condition.
Feed supply and demand must be matched for the autumn and winter so target cow condition can be achieved for the spring and the new lactation, to achieve maximum productivity.
An Autumn/Winter Feed Budget is important to determine your farm's autumn/winter feed needs.
