Dynamic Feeding has already provided a saving of one million euros in the Dutch dairy sector

The Dynamic Feeding system has been existence for one year and the results are splendid. At the moment more than 200 dairy farmers work with the system, jointly saving more than a million euros per year.

Dairy farming businesses that work with Dynamic Feeding from Agrovision realised a balance improvement of 57% per 100 Kg of whole milk compared to other dairy farmers. For an average business that is a saving of € 5,000 in one year.

Milk prices

In these times of low milk prices Dynamic Feeding provides the ideal method of controlling cost-effectiveness. With Dynamic Feeding the cost price is reduced whereby more profit remains on the bottom line.

The principle

Dynamic Feeding is a unique way of calculating concentrates. To do this, an arithmetical model studies the concentrate intake and milk yield of the cow on a daily basis. By looking at how the cow reacts to concentrates as regards milk yield, the individual concentrate efficiency of the cow is determined. Using this efficiency figure, the model can calculate an optimum feed balance with matching advice on concentrates for the cow concerned, based on the feed price and the milk price.
