After talking with many of the local dairy farms, we were able to list the various areas that drove the owners and operators crazy. Every time the milk pricing went into a spiral, we lost 10% of the dairies. Many of these dairies are family farms, with the same number of dairy cows, just less dairies. Was it possible to adapt our new hybrid system to meet the needs of the dairy farm?

Water, Sunlight, Grass: Water related issues are critically important to dairy farms. All the early dairies were located next to a stream, which provided a source of year round quality water. Now, the situation is entirely different with the establishment of CAFO (Confined Animal Feed Operations) by the EPA. No longer do the dairy cows graze on high nutrient grass in sunlight. For survival, the dairy has had to add more cows and has had to become a larger scale business. Today the dairy cows shuttle between the loafing shed and the milking parlor. So a nutrition element has disappeared from the dairy farm. How do we compensate for the lost sunlight and fresh grass?

The solution is the Greenbelt Dairy Management System. Our research enabled us to locate a colloidal nutrient developer that had been working on a special nutrient that worked well in dairy farms. We also did testing in South America that proved that we could indeed cut the mortality rate and shorten the time between calf and heifer and raise dairy cow production by 4-5 Lbs. of milk per day.

The Greenbelt Feed-Water System can help level the playing field for the
dairy operator. This is a necessary survival tool for the 21st century
dairy.
