Lincoln University dairy farm, now a cropping farm?
Abstract
Lincoln University Dairy Farm (LUDF) is achieving excellent levels of profitability through
growing large amounts of high quality grass and harvesting this to produce over 1700 MS/ha and 425 kgs MS/cow. Managing pastures is the most important activity on a dairy farm. The cows are your clients and you have to supply them with the ideal crop of grass (quantity and quality) to graze on every day, particularly in the first half of the season.
