Continuing a dairy tradition Klimek takes over family farm

By Andrea Borgerding andrea.b@dairystar.com

ALEXANDRIA, Minn. – There is no career Frank Klimek could see himself doing other than dairy farming. He grew up on his family’s 50-cow dairy working alongside his siblings, and so it was a natural progression for him to eventually purchase the farm. His father, Glen, has supported him at every step.

Klimek milks 50 Holstein and Red and White Holstein cows in a tiestall barn near Alexandria.

He also raises corn, alfalfa and wheat or oats on the farm’s 300 acres.

“Growing up, I always enjoyed doing eldwork,” Klimek said. “I also like seeing the calves grow and eventually get into the barn to milk. I enjoy seeing how they do as cows.”

That joy of seeing life progress on the farm is what kept Klimek dairying throughout his life. After high school graduation in 2007, Klimek attended Alexandria Technical College in Alexandria to learn diesel mechanics.

“I did that so I could use that knowledge on the farm,” Klimek said.

Klimek stayed living on the farm but also worked as a mechanic in town while attending school. He graduated with a diesel mechanics degree in 2009.

In 2011, Klimek formed a 25:75 partnership with his father.

“I took care of 25% of the feed and whatever it took to get 25% of the milk production,” Klimek said.

The father-son working relationship ourished in the common interest in keeping the family farm going.

“We always got along,” Klimek said. “We never

Klimek credits everything he knows about farming to his dad. Glen began milking in 1977.

Nothing milks faster - NOTHING The TridentPulsation™ pulsator provides the fastest milking in the industry – without exception! A 2X10 parlor at Krijnen Holsteins in Ontario Canada is milking 400 cows in three hours. That is a turn rate of 6.6 per hour.

ConƟnued from KLIMEK | Page 3 milking a herd of cows.

In 2019, Klimek took over the farm as sole operator and continues to make payments on a contract for deed. Klimek feels there is no other way an incoming farmer could start without working with a previous owner.

“It would have been 42 years of him milking cows,” Klimek said of Glen. “He reluctantly semi-retired last year after he banged up his knee. It forced him to slow down.”

Until his injury, Glen helped on the farm every day.

He is eager to see the farm continue.

“He didn’t pressure me to take over,” Klimek said.

“When the milk price went down, it got hard to have two people in it. That’s when he decided to give up the reins.”

Klimek has since made a few changes to the dairy, including adding automatic take-offs and a TMR mixer.

His goals for the dairy herd include increasing production, improving hoof health, cow comfort and breeding more

To help save on operating costs, Klimek learned to A.I. He also does much of the

repair work on machinery and tractors.

The addition of a TMR increased milk production

by 1,000 pounds and also improved the herd’s milk components.

In the future, Klimek

would like to build a calf facility.

“I’d like to grow the herd but times are a little uncertain right now,” Klimek said.

Klimek said Glen does not say much when he sees the changes Klimek makes on the farm.

“He likes seeing the cows still here and knowing he can come help,” Klimek said.

Despite the uncertainty of the industry, Klimek resolves to continue dairying. His wife, Lindsey, and their four children appreciate life on the farm. Lindsey helps feed calves but also works full time as an instructor at Alexandria Technical College.

“I have no regrets,” Klimek said. “I’m just hoping I can make it lifetime work. I always wanted to take it over to keep it going. It’s nice to keep it in the family.”

With help from his dad, Klimek can hopefully keep the farm in the family while continuing the career that has come so naturally for him.

Dairy’s sustainable story Forum panelists share thoughts on environmental stewardship

By Krista Kuzma

krista.k@dairystar.com

ST. PAUL, Minn. –Sustainability is becoming a bigger topic for all levels of the food supply chain, and those in dairy community are trying to further the conversation and action.

“Earlier this year, the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy set some aggressive new collective environmental stewardship goals to help advance our industry’s role in building a sustainable future,” Andy Vance said. “It includes ambitions to achieve neutral or better carbon emissions, optimize water usage and improve water quality by 2050. Those goals will help dairy build upon and quantify industry progress for our vision of being an environmental solution.”

Vance was the master of ceremonies for the virtual Dairy Experience Forum July 15 hosted by Midwest Dairy.

Vance was also the moderator to further discuss sustainability through an environmental solutions panel featuring three people.

Suzanne Vold shared her experience as a dairy producer who owns Dorrich Dairy in Glenwood, Minnesota, and as an environmental stewardship committee member for the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy. Bob Huffman gave insight from the processor standpoint as the president and chief executive ofcer of First District Association in Litcheld, Minnesota, and as a board of director member for the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy. Brian Zook talked about the retailer perspective as the director of milk sourcing and dairy sustainability at Bel Brands USA and as a member of the environmental stewardship commitment taskforce through the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy.

When all three panelists had the opportunity to dene sustainability, each one of them said it was a key

component to their business. Vold said sustainability is leaving the farm in better shape than before she received it.

“We (farmers) think in terms of generations,” she said. “So, when we talk about leaving it better than when we came, we’re talking about leaving it better for our children, for our grandchildren and those who may come after us. It encompasses everything from how we take care of our cows, our natural resources – the air, the land, the water – and how we take care of our communities. It really is the whole picture.”

Huffman said sustainability is doing what is right.

“Within our role from farm to table, it’s a really easy decision for First District to sign on and adopt the U.S. dairy stewardship commitment,” he said. “For us, that reinforces our commitment and our role to building a sustainable future, and what we demonstrate with that commitment to our customers and ultimately our consumers.”

Zook said Bel Brands has been using the Farmers Assuring Responsible Management program to help communicate what dairy is doing to be more sustainable. This includes areas like reducing greenhouse gas emissions and complying with animal welfare standards.

“There’s certainly a value from a global standpoint,” he said about being sustainable.

He also nds value in a program recognized worldwide.

“The FARM animal welfare program is above and beyond any other nation’s in the world,” Zook said.

“It is internationally recognized as the standard and it is above any other species in the country delivering on food.”

At First District, all members are also committed to the FARM program.

Huffman said the cooperative is also reusing water and tracking waste usage. Last year, it reused 185 million gallons of water at the plant site. The cooperative also reuses 99% of its waste into other agricultural uses, and is actively trying to reduce the 1% that goes to the landll. Huffman said documentation is important.

“We need to show what we’re

doing and walking the talk,” he said.

At Dorrich Dairy, the Vold family has approached sustainability through automation. Most recently, the dairy switched to robotic milking along with robotic barn cleaners. Four years ago, the dairy started using manure solids for bedding to reuse resources.

“Farmers across the U.S. are doing all sorts of amazing and different things because our dairies are so unique and different,” Vold said.

However, sometimes sharing the victories of sustainability on farms is not shared as much as it should be, Vold said.

“We don’t do a great job of sharing what we’re doing on our own operations because we are independent operators and that’s what makes us good farmers,” she said. “But we need to tell our story. We heard from the consumer group. They don’t know a lot about how we take such good care of our animals, how we do things on our farm to recycle water many times.”

Huffman agreed.

“We have to do a better job of telling our story, telling the facts and making sure the consumers understand the type of products we put out on the shelves,” he said.

Vold said she relies on others in the industry – her cooperative and regional promoting group as examples – to help her family tell their dairy’s story.

Zook said there is a great story to share.

“The dairy cow itself is one of the best recycling machines we have in taking hundreds of thousands of tons of byproducts and materials that would

normally go to a landll and convert them into healthy, nutritious and safe food,” he said.

Huffman added that along with nutritious products, dairy has diversity with many product options for snacks, meals or drinks.

The nal topic of the panel included using technology to track sustainability.

All three panelists agreed that having data is key to helping share dairy’s sustainable message.

“We are a global world and an internet-connected world,” he said. “It helps us as we compete against all other proteins globally.”

As part of the FARM environmental stewardship module, Vold said her family’s dairy is evaluated and tracked to gather data.

“I want to assure farmers that if you’re asked to participated in FARM environmental stewardship, please feel condent your data privacy will be protected,” she said. “That is something our committee and industry takes very seriously. We look at the data as an industry basis, not as an individual farm basis.”

She encouraged dairy farmers to be involved in tracking data to help share the sustainable dairy story.

“When you’re asked do the FARM environmental stewardship survey, please participate because the more data we have, the better we can do as an industry of showing what a great job we are already doing in being sustainable,” Vold said. “There’s more work to be done, no doubt about it, but we are already doing some amazing and wonderful things.”

320-243-3938 • www.feedco.net Samuel Klaphake 12 years old Seventh grade When do you do chores, and what chores do you do? We tend to help with chores in the morning and evenings. I feed calves and my two Katahdin sheep. I wipe cows, rake poop, take off milkers, care for the chickens, and knock down hay and straw from the hay barn.

What is your favorite and least favorite chores? My favorite chore is anything to do with the animals. My least favorite chore is knocking down crunchy hay to make TMR. Do you have a favorite animal on your farm? I have a lot of favorite animals on our farm, but my favorite is my Jersey cow, Daisy. She is friendly and kind and lets me sit on her.

What do you want to be when you grow up? A farmer, an author and maybe I can start at a TV studio in town.

MARK KLAPHAKE/DAIRY STAR

If you had your own farm, what would it look like? I would have Holstein, Jersey and Guernsey cows, sheep, pigs, goats, donkeys, dogs, chickens, ducks and a goose.

Amy and Ron Klaphake milk 45 cows with their sons – (from leŌ) MaƩhew, Luke and Samuel – in Stearns County near Sauk Centre, Minnesota.
