The Dairy Productivity Grant program was designed to support projects that directly impact milk production on PA dairy operations, from milking efficiency technologies and feeding-related technology to activity monitoring systems.
Take a look at some past projects, and see how these dairy producers have used the grants to improve milk production.
Activity Monitoring System
The Dairy Productivity Grant was a blessing in helping to fund a portion of the significant upfront investment in an activity monitoring system. The new monitoring system has improved our breeding results, herd health and overall ability to lead our herd to profitability.
TMR Mixer
We are very grateful for the grant. Without it, we would not have been able to get the TMR mixer. The TMR mixer increased our first lactation heifers' milk production by 10 lbs. and they are getting pregnant on the first service.
