TOM HALTON
Halton Farm
“It has enabled Halton Farms, in Cheshire, to make quick and easy changes in daily feedings, improving overall feed efficiency. The Cowconnect system identified too much undigested fibre in the ration, so the farm switched to feeding twice daily and were rewarded with a 1-litre a cow increase in milk overnight, due to the ration being fresher and better mixed.”
