The DairyMAX® system is a powerful, nimble business tool that puts our nutrition expertise and global research capabilities at your fingertips to support your business goals.

We start by building your dairy operation in the virtual world. This virtual operation puts animal requirements and nutrient supply in the context of ingredient valuation, diet formulation and performance projection. The MAX® system then allows you to connect a wide range of factors to animal performance.

Key inputs include:

• Ingredients: Accurate nutrient profiles, supplier differences, inventory usage and other data
• Animal data: Intake, production, weight gain, milk fat percentage, milk true protein percentage, BCS data, group lactation factors
• Environmental data: Ambient temperature and humidity
• Physical nutrition: Grain particle size, forage particle length, steam-flaked grain density, corn silage kernel hardness
• Performance: Amino acid targets, ADG targets, milk production group lead factors
• Metrics: Feed inventories, cost per cow, cost per cwt milk, income over feed cost, feed efficiency

With the MAX® system, you can identify the limiting factors to performance in your operation and look at opportunities from many different angles, deriving clear solutions from complex questions in greater detail and in real time.  The MAX® system is available through customized nutritional programs, service arrangements or know-how licensures.
