WHAT PEOPLE SAY

" The Bugs & Bucks course was a great opportunity to expand our knowledge on feeding cows. Charlotte was extremely knowledgeable and had a great way to break down the course for all to understand. There was great variety in the farms represented at the course too, allowing us to see how other people approach feeding their cows and the why's and how's behind their own feeding programs. We learnt many valuable tools in which we have been able to apply in a practical manner on our farm. Not only focusing on increasing feed amounts to produce more milk but how to do this in a financially viable manner.

By understanding the intricate nutritional budgets required for a cow to produce more milk or higher milk solids, we were able to come home and compare this method with our own feeding strategies. In applying the methods learnt at Bugs & Bucks we have been able to increase our production levels which is a great sense of achievement. "
