2013 the manure pit was redesigned and
lined. A Bauer manure separator was installed. A portion of the dry material is being
used as bedding for all the non-milking cattle. The milking herd is being bedded by kiln
-dried shavings twice per week.
The farm is comprised of 650 acres of
tillable land. Of this acreage 300 acres is used
for corn silage, 200 acres for alfalfa haylage and
150 acres for grass haylage. All forages are
stored in bunker silos. We have pasture land
available to graze the dry cows during the grow
season months.
