Get a great start on 2018 with a fresh look at tracking start-up milk responses. Listen in on this ‘Big Fat Idea’ on how to gain a clearer picture of start-up milk using weekly milk lactation plots. Renee Smith from Virtus Nutrition gives a great overview of how this weekly milk view can help:
- Monitor fresh cow performance to quickly see changes in herd performance, since the start of the lactation determines the rest of the lactation

- Track the effects of transition pen movement, dietary changes, individual cow therapeutic treatments, etc.
