How a Dairy Producer Uses Herd Data to Make Daily Decisions (Sponsored Podcast)
Q: Matt, why don't you tell our listeners about your farm? Where are you located? And what does your operation look like today?
Matt describes Hendel Farms as a fourth-generation dairy operation started in the 19th century, with around 400 cows (mostly Holstein and brown Swiss genetics historically), involvement in AI, embryo sales, and a focus on cow health, data collection, and using genetic/genomic data to inform breeding decisions.
Digesters, genetics and why they started up the dairy again with George Dick from Dicklands Farm and Dicklands Biogas
Q: How do you manage the digester as a separate business from the dairy operation?
Maintain separation of roles and staff, while sharing expertise where appropriate; recognize the different skill sets required for running a digester versus managing a dairy herd.
Digesters, genetics and why they started up the dairy again with George Dick from Dicklands Farm and Dicklands Biogas
Q: What should other dairy producers be asking if they're considering a digester?
Ask about who will operate it, access to parts and service, feedstock mix, regulatory timelines, and how it will fit into farm economics and environmental goals.
Digesters, genetics and why they started up the dairy again with George Dick from Dicklands Farm and Dicklands Biogas
Q: What is involved in the process of building and starting up a digester for those unfamiliar?
Start with an off-take agreement for gas or power, understand regulatory requirements, and plan a scalable design; expect substantial research and possible changes during construction as you learn what works in practice.
Recent Research from Simplot Animal Sciences and Texas Tech University Helps to Maximize Beef-on-Dairy Calf Value (Sponsored Podcast)
Q: What were the most compelling findings during the feedlot and carcass phases?
Angus Angus and Char-Lay Angus calves tended to be more feed-efficient, with Angus Holstein and Char-Lay Holstein showing different efficiency and growth patterns; Char-Lay crosses contributed to larger frame and birth weights, while the Angus-on-Angus group often produced higher prime carcasses and marbling in some comparisons.
