Mixing feed has advantages for both the farmer and livestock. Uniformly mixed feed components provide better nutrition, improved feed efficiency and cost, and the opportunity to reduce wastage. In dry times, when much of the feed is purchased off farm with higher costs, wastage and efficiency are even more critical. Improved nutrition benefits milk yield or weight gain and contributes to animal health and fertility.
