FarmGate have been working with us since 2007, over this time herd performance has consistently improved by increasing milk yield, milk solids and milk-from-forage. This has helped improve our overall farm efficiency alongside our busy ice-cream business.

By working with FarmGate the performance of our robot herd has improved dramatically in that time via increased milk yield per cow and higher milk-from-forage. Working alongside our vet and fertility team this has improved our herd profitability and long-term future.

Guiness Farms have been feeding GlycoPass for a number of years now and have seen a significant improvement in our pregnancy rate due to increasing blood glucose levels in the herd.

We use GlycoPass through the liquid feeders on our robots to target our early lactation and higher-yielding cows. It has helped to improve cow visits to the robots and sustain milk yields.

We have been feeding GlycoPass for a few years now and it has improved conception rates and milk solids in our high-yielding herd.

We had been running at a rolling average of 4.1% fat for several years. Adding protected fat had nudged this up to 4.35% but now we have a rolling average butterfat of 4.75% since the inclusion of RumenSmart, despite taking the fat out of the diet.

With so many variables, it’s hard to put a finger on things but I know since using Ultrabond, the cell count has been staying at an acceptable level and not fluctuating about like it used to. At its height, our SCC was 200,000 but it has come down to 140,000. The calving index has reduced as well by 14 days.

Mycosorb A+ is cheap compared to the cost of mycotoxins.
