DairySmart Nutrition
What we Offer
DairySmart is designed to work for you, the farmer, to achieve your goals in becoming more profitable and efficient. Our guiding philosophy is to have a long term relationship with the farmer with an ongoing focus on Nutrition, Environment, and Management.
We offer four strategies to help farmers maximize income over feed costs:
- A feed program review once or twice per month – our independent nutritionists give farmers confidence in their feed management decisions.
- Custom tendering formulas for competitive pricing – farmers get the best value from their supplier based on price, service, quality and delivery. We also assist in evaluating other local or price competitive commodities to decrease ration cost.
- Exclusive access to proprietary Micro-Premix blend – guaranteed quality assurance for vitamins, minerals and micro-additives. Simplified formula manufacturing at local feed mills reducing risk of errors.
- Cost benchmark program helps farmers measure and compare feed costs quarterly – Allows farmers to calculate feed cost per litre of milk produced, compare results with other local farms and assists them in understanding how feed cost changes due to market conditions versus individual on-farm changes.
What to Expect
Our nutritionists approach their herd specific programs from a holistic standpoint.
This includes evaluating your current state, identifying strengths and areas of opportunity, and facilitating change.
