Wholecrop at a local farmers land in the Cookstown area...
Wholecrop Silage has many advantages where the fibre content ofΒ the diet could be low, particularly on a multi-cut grass silage system.Β Multi-cut silage has a much higher energy and protein content perΒ kilogram dry matter than conventional systems. Β Β
With the inclusion of whole crop as a secondary forage, which is highΒ in Neutral Digestible Fibre (NDF), this can stimulate a higher forageΒ dry matter intake which will increase overall Milk Solids and couldΒ reduce the need for a proportion of purchased feed. The addition ofΒ wholecrop silage has also been linked to an increase in animal healthΒ and fertility. Β
Donβt hesitate to get in contact with our ruminant nutritionist toΒ further discuss the principle of wholecrop silage and multi-cutΒ systems. Β Β

Grower
Gortavoy Feeds supplies a tailor-made grower ration for these continental bred cattle. These suckler bred bulls were only purchased last autumn and introduced to a specific ration to compliment a high quality silage
Feed rates of this grower ration were gradually increased from mid-December to early March.
Finisher
From early March, these continental bred bulls have been fed a tailored finishing ration which contains a high level of maize while reducing the protein content. A high level of maize combined with essential additives, such as Actisaf Yeast and Acid Buff, promotes thrive and growth while reducing the risk of Acidosis.
The Megalac Protected Fat in this diet promotes a high fat score and helps to maximise the kill out percentage...
