Remember — worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its strength. Your future altitude depends on your attitude today. Think positively and make the most of this potentially adverse situation.0 Nutrient Systems tour offered to dairy farmers, Sept. 1, 2, 3 The Ontario Large Herd Operators Group invites dairy producers to join a Nutrient Systems Tour and Demonstrations on September 1, 2, 3 focusing on what goes into the cow and what comes out. The first day of touring takes the group to six extremely feed -efficient, high - producing dairy farms. Visiting farmers will dig deeply into their feeding strategies by analyzing their mixes and having in- depth discussions led by OMAFRA's Dairy Nutritionist, Beth Wheeler. Farms hosting the tour are Coopon Flora at Floradale, Los Dairy Farm at Listowel, Eckerlea Acres and Nulandia Farms at Mitchell, Greidon Farms at St. Marys and Grootendorst Farm at Breslau. Also featured on the tour are bunker silo management, innovative calf housing, new milking technology, and sand bedding. The second day of the tour will bring the group the Corn Silage Processing Day at the Elora Research Station where they'll look at technology that further processes corn silage through rollers to enhance its feed value. Leading research specialists will be there to discuss how to feed and handle processed corn silage with "Silage Processing: Is It Worth It?" "Silo Management for Your Processed Corn Silage" and "Forage Particle Size: Its Importance in Ruminant Rations". In the afternoon several companies will be on hand to discuss and demonstrate their stationary roller blowers, as well as self-propelled and pull -type harvesters equipped with variable speed rollers for corn silage processing.
