Owl Farm case study - Imported supplements

This page from Owl Farm, the Waikato demonstration dairy farm run jointly by St Peter's School and Lincoln University, sets out how much silage, PKE and molasses is imported each year and where each is fed.

It covers falling total supplement use over recent seasons alongside steady milk output, the minerals and additives fed through the Dosatron, and why supplements are timed around weather and pasture cover rather than fed daily.
