automatic feeding system

Automated feed pushing

Automating the recurring work of feed pushing will increase feed pushing frequency at the same time as reducing your labor requirements. You’ll save up to 180 hours a year; valuable time you can now spend on other activities on your farm. In addition, you’ll beneÀt from a clean feed alley, day and night, and a reduction in fuel usage since you no longer need the tractor to push feed.

Smart feed pushing the Lely way

The standalone machine moves along the feeding alley automatically. Based on the routes you have predeÀned, it follows the feed fence while its rotating lower mechanism pushes the feed towards it.

Flexible options

For extra Áexibility, the machine itself can be equipped with several options. These include a smart skirt lifter that minimizes wear and tear and allows left and right pushing for increased capacity. Barn door control can also be implemented in case your animals are housed in different barns. Furthermore, electric bumper protection and an LED light for enhanced visibility during the night can also be included. All options can be combined in the Flex package.

Storing milk upright Silo allows Hamminks exibility with uid product storage

By Jerry Nelson

jerry.n@dairystar.com

BRUCE, S.D. – There once was a time when dairy farmers stored their milk in galvanized steel cans. As milk production grew, so did the need for onfarm milk storage. The venerable milk can was gradually replaced by stainless-steel bulk milk tanks.

Most dairy farms have at least one barrel-shaped bulk milk tank. When a dairy expands, it can boost milk storage capacity by trading up to a bigger tank or by installing an additional tank.

Wim Hammink and his wife, Nicolene, and their son, Tom, milk a total of about 4,000 cows between their two farm sites located near Bruce. A couple of years ago, the Hamminks expanded their herd and found themselves in need of additional milk storage. Instead of adding another horizontal milk tank, the Hamminks went in different direction: up.

The Hamminks decided the best solution to their storage problem was to install a 20,000-gallon milk silo.

“After we expanded our herd, we had no extra milk storage capacity,” said Wim Hammink. “Our two 6,500-gallon milk tanks could hold only one day’s worth of production. We would have to dump milk if we weren’t picked up every day.”

Cost was another factor in the Hamminks’ decision to install a milk silo.

“The per-gallon cost for installing a milk silo is about two-thirds of that for a horizontal tank,” Hammink said.

“Processing plants have used milk silos for many years, so it’s a well-tested technology.”

In January 2019, a new milk silo was hoisted onto a concrete pad Wim Hammink at the Hamminks’ south dairy facility where they milk 3,000 Jersey and Jersey crossbred cows.

“The footprint of a milk silo is much smaller than that of a traditional tank,” Hammink said. “We had to pour deep footings for the silo. The concrete slab where the silo sits is 6 feet thick.”

The timing for the installation of the Hamminks’ milk silo proved to be fortunate.

JERRY NELSON/DAIRY STAR

Hammink Dairy uses a 20,000-gallon milk silo at the farm where they milk 3,000 head of Jersey and Jersey crossbred cows near Bruce, South Dakota. Without the silo, the dairy could store only one day’s worth of milk producƟon.

JERRY NELSON/DAIRY STAR

The milk silo (leŌ) takes up only a small porƟon of the milk room at Hammink Dairy near Bruce, South Dakota. Should the milk in either of the two 6,500-gallon horizontal tanks get too warm, it can be pumped into the silo and cooled with the silo’s exterior chiller.

“In April 2019, we had a really bad snowstorm and the milk trucks couldn’t get through,” Hammink said.

“By the time the roads got cleared, we had seven semi loads of milk stored on our farm. We ended up dumping just one semi load of milk. Without the silo, we would have had to dump four loads.

That helped justify the cost of the new silo.”

The Hamminks’ milk silo features the latest technology.

“The silo will send us an email when it’s getting close to full,” Hammink said. “It will also send the same email to the milk hauler. Our milk buyer, Valley Queen Cheese Factory, does an excellent job of keeping us cleaned out of milk.”

The Hamminks chose to add an op-

tional exterior tank chiller to their silo.

“Our milk goes from the cows to a plate cooler and then to a glycol chiller,” Hammink said. “By the time it gets to our tanks or the silo, the milk is at 38 degrees. The silo has a sensor that will alert us if the milk’s temperature goes above 40 degrees. It will also kick on the exterior milk chiller to get the temperature back down to 38. In the summertime, when the weather is hot and the silo is empty, the temperature alarm might go off when we begin to pump milk into the silo. The exterior chiller will also kick in. The alarm will switch off as soon as there’s enough milk in the silo to cool the warm stainless steel.”

extra storage and cooling capacity.

“If the milk should get too warm in one of our horizontal tanks, we can pump it over to the silo and cool it back down,” Hammink said. “It’s nice to have that backup capability.”

Keeping the interior of the milk silo clean and sanitized is no more difcult than any other milk tank, Hammink said.

“If anything, I think it’s easier to clean a milk silo,” Hammink said. “There is a powerful spray nozzle at the top of the tank that applies the usual cycle of hot water rinses and sanitizers. In a silo, the wa-

ter and the sanitizers naturally run down the walls. Gravity works against you in a horizontal tank.”

Because the Hamminks’ silo can hold multiple truckloads of milk, it is common for their hauler to only partially empty the immense upright storage tank.

“Whenever the hauler takes milk out of the silo but doesn’t empty it, the hoses have to be rinsed and sanitized with a special wash cycle,” Hammink said. “Ours was one of the rst milk silos to be installed in this area. We worked closely with the state inspec-

An exterior chiller automaƟcally kicks in should the temperature of the milk rise above 40 degrees. The Hamminks decided to add the opƟonal exterior chiller to their new milk silo.

tors to ensure that everything was done according to their specications.”

The Hamminks had considered going to a system where their chilled milk is loaded directly into a waiting truck but decided against it.

“Your milk holding capacity is limited to the number of empty milk trailers on the farm,” Hammink said. “That number is usually one. The milk hauler doesn’t want to invest a lot of money in trailers that would spend a good deal of their time sitting empty. If we had been using direct load-

WATER TANKS

ing during that snowstorm, we would have been forced to dump seven semi loads of milk.”

Mike Van’t Hof owns a milk hauling business that serves dairy farmers in eastern South Dakota, southwestern Minnesota and northwestern Iowa. Van’t Hof has two customers that use milk silos.

“The plus side of a silo is that you have more room and more exibility,” Van’t Hof said. “The downside is that it takes a long time to empty a silo and get it washed. I tell dairy farmers to put in a silo

that’s sized for one day’s worth of milk production, then add another one just like it. You need to have time to empty the silo and wash it properly. If you can do that, a milk silo is a win-win for everyone. Milk silos are a good thing, but they come with a learning curve and growing pains.”

After using their milk silo for more than a year and a half, the Hamminks have just one regret.

“I only wish that we had gone with a bigger silo,” Hammink said.

Selecting for A2A2 genetics UMN research evaluates selecting for protein type

By Jennifer Coyne jenn@dairystar.com

MORRIS, Minn. – One of the dairy industry’s growing markets is A2 milk. “(A2 milk) is one of the most increasing sectors of the dairy market,” Brad Heins said. “Several research studies have talked about A1 and A2 milk and the effects on human health.

The jury is still out, but there’s a lot of recent interest in A2 genetics.”

Heins, a dairy scientist with the University of Minnesota West Central Research and Outreach Center in Morris, presented ndings from two research studies as part of the seminar, “Dairy Genetics: breeding for A2 milk” during the center’s virtual organic dairy day Aug. 11.

The university partnered with Penn State University to genomically evaluate the two Morris dairy herds – a 130-cow organic milking herd and 160-cow conventional milking herd.

Each herd includes purebred Holsteins – contemporary and 1964 genetics – and two crossbred rotations of Viking Red, Normande and Jersey, as well as Holstein, Viking Red and Montbéliarde.

The rst study, “Genetic traits and beta casein A2 of Holstein and crossbred dairy cattle in an organic and

low-input dairy herd,” compared cows for milk production, fertility, longevity and health as they relate to A1 or A2 genetics.

“We’ve been exploring genomics of those animals,” Heins said. “So far, we’ve been nding about 50% of the herd is A2.”

The A2 gene determines whether an animal produces A1 or A2 beta casein proteins in the milk, said Heins.

Every animal has two copies of the gene, allowing for the following possible combination: A1A1, A1A2 or A2A2.

Farmers can increase the probability of A2A2 genetics by understanding herd matings.

“The fastest way to get A2 genetics in the herd is to breed with A2A2 bulls,” Heins said.

For the study, Brad Heins the 1964 genetic Holsteins were considered the control group to compare against the two crossbred rotations and contemporary Holsteins.

“This was a part of a larger study for genetics and health in crossbreeds,” Heins said.

Cattle were genotyped using three types of tests. One test evaluated 128 Holsteins and 48 control Holsteins; another evaluated 402 crossbreds, Turn to A2A2 GENETICS | Page 7

40 Holsteins and 36 control Holsteins; and the last group included 216 crossbreds, 56 Holsteins and 23 control Holsteins.

“In all, we have genotyped just shy of 1,000 animals in our research herd,” Heins said.

Then, researchers looked at predicted transmitting ability from the December 2019 genetic evaluation published by the Council on Dairy Cattle Breeding, paying particular attention to the indepen-

dent variable of A2 status and genetic line.

Of the breeds genotyped, 50% purebred contemporary Holsteins in the Morris herds are A2A2 carriers with 14% of the Holsteins being A1A1 carriers. The 1964 genetic Holsteins tell a different story with only 23% carrying the dominate A2 gene.

“Overtime, we’ve selected for a greater percentage of A2 genetics in Holsteins cows,” Heins said.

Of the crossbreds in the herds, 47% of Holstein sired animals are A2A2; 51% Jersey sired with only 8% being A1A1; 50% Montbéliarde sired; 45% Viking Red sired; and 55% Normande sired with 4% being A1A1 carriers.

Across the entire herd at the research center, 43% are dominate for the A2 gene and 15% are A1A1.

Dairy Star - Third Section • Saturday, August 22, 2020 • Page 7

“(The A2 prevalence) was much higher than we might have expected,” Heins said.

The study also compared net merit to A2 genetics but observed no difference amongst genotypes.

In Heins’ presentation, he also reviewed data collected from a second study between the university and Penn State, “Update on beta casein A2 genetics of organic Holstein dairy cows across the Midwest and Northeast.” The group also looked at A2 genetics of organic dairy cows amongst the other major breeds.

Of the total 1,485 cows genomically tested across the region, 1,326 were Holstein. And of that group, 45% are A2A2 carriers. The percentage of Jersey cows with A2A2 genes is similar (44%) and Brown Swiss slightly more (59%). The Ayrshire pool of seven cows has no A2 dominate carriers, but 57% are A1A2. A group of 10 Guernseys are 90% A2A2 with 10% being A1A2.

The study also looked at Montbéliarde, Norwegian Red, Swedish Red and Normande breeds, including animals which the breed is unknown.

Over this entire population of cows, about 40%50% are A2A2.

“We then looked at organic Holstein cows, specically, on pasture,” Heins said. “We wanted to determine milk, fat and protein production and somatic cell score for A2 genotypes.”

Of the 637 Holsteins from seven herds on Dairy Herd Improvement Association, 6% are A1A1, 44% are A1A2 and 50% are A2A2.

“We did not see any difference in production of milk fat or protein based on beta casein genotypes,” Heins said. “There was no difference in somatic cell

either.”

As with the rst study, this one also evaluated the genetics of the research population against December 2019 PTAs as published by CDCB. This time, researchers looked at net merit and grazing merit.

The study found that A2A2 cows had a higher net merit, at about $60 lifetime dollars, and $80 more in grazing merit compared to A1A1 cows.

Those same cows had higher milk and protein PTAS and a slight difference in increased productive life.

However, dairy wellness prot was largely unaffected.

Research indicates a benet for understanding the A2 genetic prole of a herd and selecting for A2 genetics to capture a growing market. However, A2 should not be the only criteria when making breeding decisions, said Heins.

“The ISO certication for the FARM Program demonstrates its importance and validates our industry’s commitment to animal care not only domestically but also in the world market,” said Jim Mulhern, president and CEO of the National Milk Producers Federation, which administers the FARM program.

The assessment to the ISO standard determines whether animal welfare programs meet international standards for animal care as set by an independent standards-setting organization. FARM was evaluated to ensure that the standards in Version 4.0 of its Animal Care program meet the highest quality in speciesspecic welfare practices.

The World Organization for Animal Health and ISO work together to help farmers and programs like FARM standardize and implement their animal care guidelines. The OIE, the World Trade Organization-recognized body for setting animal health and welfare standards affecting international trade, adopted dairy cattle welfare standards in 2015.

FARM was the rst livestock program in the world recognized for the technical specication in 2018. It repeated the USDA verication process to provide an additional level of assurance for the improvements made to the program in its fourth iteration. The verication by USDA signies to FARM Program participants that its standards are among the best in the world; it also signals to consumers they can have condence their dairy products were produced in accordance with the highest level of science-based animal care.

USDA to survey county small grains acreage The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service will survey producers in 32 states, including Minnesota, for its 2020 County Agricultural Production Survey and Sept. 1, 2020 Agricultural Survey.

These surveys will collect information on total acres planted and harvested, and yield and production of small grains crops down to the county level. These surveys will provide the data needed to estimate acreage and production of selected crops such as barley, oats, and wheat in the United States.

“The data provided will help federal and state programs support the farmer,” said Dan Lofthus, Minnesota State Statistician. “I hope every producer understands the importance of these data and will take the time to respond if they receive this survey. Producers can lose out when there are no data to determine accurate rates for loans, disaster payments, crop insurance price elections and more. When enough producers do not respond to surveys, NASS is not able to publish data.

Without data, agencies such as USDA’s Risk Management Agency or Farm Service Agency do not have information on which to base the programs that serve those same producers.”

You are encouraged to respond online at agcounts.usda.gov, or by mail.

Alternatively, within the next few weeks NASS representatives will contact selected Minnesota growers to arrange telephone interviews to complete the survey.

NASS safeguards the privacy of all respondents and publishes only aggregate data, ensuring that no individual operation or producer can be identied, as required by federal law.

Survey results from the Sept. 1, 2020 Agricultural Survey will be published in the Small Grains Summary and the quarterly Grain Stocks report, both to be released Wednesday, Sept. 30, 2020. County-level survey results will be published on the NASS Quick Stats database (https://quickstats.nass.usda.gov/) at 3 p.m. ET on Thursday, Dec. 10, 2020. For more information on NASS surveys and reports, call the NASS Minnesota Field Ofce at 1-800-772-0825.

ConƟnued from UDDER STUFF| Page 8 USDA accepting applications to help cover costs for organic certication USDA’s Farm Service Agency announced that organic producers and handlers can apply for federal funds to assist with the cost of receiving and maintaining organic certication through the Organic Certication Cost Share Program (OCCSP). Applications for eligible certication expenses paid between Oct. 1, 2019, and Sept. 30, 2020, are due Oct. 31, 2020.

“For producers producing food with organic certication, this program helps cover a portion of those certication costs,” FSA Administrator Richard Fordyce said. “Contact your local FSA county ofce to learn more about this program and other valuable USDA resources, like farm loans and conservation assistance, that can help you succeed.”

OCCSP provides cost-share assistance to producers and handlers of agricultural products for the costs of obtaining or maintaining organic certication under the USDA’s National Organic Program. Eligible producers include any certied producers or handlers who have paid organic certication fees to a USDAaccredited certifying agent. Eligible expenses for cost-share reimbursement include application fees, inspection costs, fees related to equivalency agreement and arrangement requirements, travel expenses for inspectors, user fees, sales assessments and postage.

Due to expected participation levels and the limited funds available, FSA revised the reimbursement amount available through scal year 2023. Certied producers and handlers are now eligible to receive reimbursement for up to 50 percent of the certied organic operation’s eligible expenses, up to a maximum of $500 per scope.

This change is will allow a larger number of certied organic operations to receive assistance. If Congress authorizes additional funding, FSA may provide additional assistance to certied operations that have applied for OCCSP, not to exceed 75 percent of their eligible costs, up to $750 per scope.

The changes to the payment calculation and maximum payment amount are applicable to all certied organic operations, regardless of whether they apply through an FSA county ofce or a participating state agency. State agencies that are interested in overseeing reimbursements to producers and handlers in their states must establish new agreements with FSA for scal 2020.

Today’s announcement also includes the opportunity for state agencies to

crystalyx.com I 800-727-2502

apply for grant agreements to administer the OCCSP program in scal 2020. State agencies that establish agreements may be able to extend their agreements and receive additional funds to administer the program in future years.

FSA has not yet determined whether an additional application period will be announced for state agencies that choose not to participate in scal 2020. States that would like to administer OCCSP for multiple years are encouraged to establish an agreement for scal 2020.

FSA will accept applications from state agencies from Aug. 10, 2020 through Sept. 9, 2020.

State Agencies must submit the Application for Federal Assistance (Standard Form 424 and 424B) electronically via Grants.gov, the Federal grants website, at http://www.grants.gov.

Online Purple Cow Gift Shop™ to support the National Children’s Center For the rst time, World Dairy Expo’s Purple Cow Gift Shop is offering online sales. Spurred on by the cancellation of World Dairy Expo® 2020, the online store features Expo apparel and cow paraphernalia. WDE is pledging 10% of all prots from the online store in 2020 to the National Children’s Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety.

Children’s Center scientists and staff focus on research and outreach activities that help farm owners, parents and supervisors identify and address hazards associated with agricultural work and rural environments.

“As a family-focused organization, we saw this as a unique opportunity to support a non-prot focused on serving farm families,” shares Scott Bentley, World Dairy Expo General Manager. “The Children’s Center does just that through their nation-wide outreach programs focused on keeping kids safe on the farm.”

The Purple Cow Gift Shop’s online store will remain open through the end of the year at www.worlddairyexpo.com.

There has been unprecedented milk and product price volatility over the last few months. Rabobank’s global dairy strategist Mary Ledman and Vice President of Dairy Research Ben Laine discuss their outlook on the global and U.S. dairy markets on a webinar at noon on Tuesday, Aug. 25. The webinar is hosted by I-29 Moo University Consortium.

Ben has spent ten years working across the dairy value chain from cooperatives and cheese processors to food and agriculture nance. Ben is currently an analyst covering the North American dairy production sector for RaboResearch.

As Rabobank’s Dairy Strategist, Mary Ledman leads a team of analysts around the globe to analyze developments in the regional and global dairy markets. She develops Rabobank’s dairy forecasts. Mary has extensive knowledge of international dairy markets and policy with over thirty years of experience in the sector.

There is no registration and participants can access the webinar at https://z. umn.edu/I29DairyOutlook For more information, contact Jim Salfer at salfe001@umn.edu or 612.360.4506; or Fred M. Hall at fredhall@iastate.edu or 712.737.4230.

National Mastitis Council’s (NMC) next webinar features “Milking Procedures for Optimal Milk Quality and Milk Harvest.” This one-hour educational offering starts at 2 p.m. Central time on Sept. 10, and will be presented in Spanish.

Jorge Delgado, who leads Alltech’s Training, Talent Development and Retention Program, says employees are one of the most valuable assets to any dairy.

Therefore, training and developing the people entrusted to carry out milking protocols should be a top priority for any dairy.

The upcoming NMC webinar is intended for individuals responsible for milking cows and consultants who want to learn about a different training approach. During the webinar, Delgado will explain several aspects regarding employee training, including the why and purpose of a milking technician, and the employee’s role in a dairy’s success – highlighting the employee’s ability to reduce somatic cell count and mastitis during the milking routine.

Upon completion of the webinar, participants should understand: – Mastitis basics – The why of every step in the milking routine – The importance of a proper and consistent milking routine To register for this free webinar, go to: https://bit.ly/NMCSeptemberWebinar and follow the prompts. As the webinar approaches, registrants will receive an email with information on how to log in to participate. If you are an NMC member and cannot attend the live program, you may access the webinar after Sept. 21 at: nmconline.org.
