Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dairy Farm: Dairy Cattle Methods, and Dairy Farm Management With this great advantage in economy of pro duction, it is quite easy to discern why the dairy cow tends to supplant the meat-bearing animals in regions where land is high priced and popula tion dense. She gives the greatest financial re turns from the feeds grown on the farm, and there fore enables the owner to get the necessary added returns from his high-priced land. Still easier is it to see why the dairy cow has supplanted the meat-bearing animals where land has become im poverished. Here she enables the farmer to get the greatest financial returns from what little his land does produce and at the same time returns to the soil practically all the plant food taken out by the feed she eats. One of the favorable economic features of the dairy business is the regularity and dependability of the returns. This appeals particularlv to the small farmer of limited means to whom security of returns is of more moment than the volume of profits. Moreover a development of dairying on a small farm afl'ords an opportunity of increasing the volume of business on a limited area. With the well recognized business results of larger profit; from larger business on the same plant. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Managing High Grade Dairy Cows in the Tropics written by John Moran and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dairy consumption in Asia has more than doubled over the last 25 years, and has led to more than 50% of the world’s total dairy imports now entering Asian markets. Consequently, Asian countries are seeking to improve their self-sufficiency in dairy produce by developing their local milk industries. Asian livestock importers are looking for increasing numbers of high grade dairy stock from established dairy industries in countries such as Australia and New Zealand. Unfortunately, a major problem encountered throughout Asia has been the poor performance of these exotic high grade dairy heifers when exported from their country of origin to a new, more stressful environment. This has been due to a failure to prepare for their introduction. Exotic dairy cows, particularly those from farms with high levels of herd performance, have high management requirements. If subjected to local and traditional small holder dairy farm practices, they are unlikely to produce acceptable yields of milk or may not even get back into calf. Poor management practices can lead to low growth rates, delayed breeding, stock diseases and even deaths among imported stock both before and after first calving. Managing High Grade Dairy Cows in the Tropics addresses the entire range of management practices found on tropical small holder dairy farms, highlighting those which are likely to adversely impact on heifer and cow performance, hence farm profitability. It is a companion volume to three other manuals written by John Moran: Rearing Young Stock on Tropical Dairy Farms in Asia, Tropical Dairy Farming and Business Management for Tropical Dairy Farmers.
Download or read book Business Management for Tropical Dairy Farmers written by John Moran and published by Landlinks Press. This book was released on 2009-05-22 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most countries in South-East Asia have established smallholder dairy farming industries through social welfare and rural development programs to provide a regular cash flow for poorly resourced farmers. These farms are now being treated as accepted rural industries and require a more business-minded approach based on changes to farm profitability. Business Management for Tropical Dairy Farmers gives smallholder dairy farmers the business management skills they will need to remain sustainable. Drawing on detailed financial analyses of smallholders in countries such as Pakistan, Thailand and Malaysia, it shows how to budget cash inputs to match cash outflows during different seasons of the year, and how to invest wisely in improving cattle housing and feeding systems. If farmers make greater use of formats and structures for farm costs and returns, it will increase their awareness of the relative importance of all their financial inputs in terms of cost of production per kilogram of milk produced on the farm. It will also allow them to make more meaningful and timely decisions by correctly costing planned changes to their routine farming practices. The book will also be of use to support organisations to more clearly define the key drivers of profit on smallholder farms, and to government departments and national dairy organisations to routinely evaluate and update their industry policies.
Download or read book Herd Health and Production Management in Dairy Practice written by Arie Brand and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text aims to teach students, practitioners and farm advisors how to give management support to the dairy farmer in order to optimize the health, productivity and welfare of his herd. The book covers management practices and farm conditions which have both positive and negative influences on these aspects, rather than a more traditional focus on specific diseases. The core element in this methodology is the protocol. In order to illustrate the standard protocol the practitioner and farm advisor are taken through a farm visit, during which operational and problem-solving issues are addressed. These issues include: nutrition; health care; reproduction; milk production; replacement rearing; and farm economics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dairy Management in California An understanding of the terms used in this bulletin is essential in order to correctly interpret and apply the material given and the conclusions made. Average Number of Cows - The size of a dairy herd is expressed in average number of total [cows (both dry and milking) in the herd for the year. It is usually computed by averaging the cows on hand on the first day of each of the twelve months. A heifer becomes a cow and is thereafter counted as such as soon as she has her first calf. Since the cow is the producing unit, all materials used, costs, and returns are shown on a cow basis. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
