Optimising dairy cattle and young stock

Sweep Agro hosts various study groups for men and women. It is also possible to compare technical business data among participants. This offers the study group even more depth. Each meeting will provide you with practical tools that you can put into practice immediately.

The meetings focus on practice and always include a visit to the barn. You can also schedule a workshop with your study group. The meetings take approximately four hours.
The topics are:

  • Dairy cattle feed
  • Feed cost
  • Concentrate composition and rationing
  • Young stock rearing
  • 65% protein from your own land
  • Transition management
  • Feeding in dry period
  • Udder health
  • Hoof health
  • Fertility
  • Cubicle set-up and barn design
  • Management figures (MPR, silage results, etc.)
  • The economics behind the technical results

Cost:
€50 ex. VAT per participant per meeting (without figure comparison)
€75 ex. VAT per participant per meeting (with figure comparison)

There will be two or three meetings per year, held during the winter period (September to April). Meetings run from 11:00–15:00 and include lunch.
