Support for Arla Feed Utilisation project ('FeedCirc')

Project Details

Description

Providing nutrition evaluation support alongside the data collection work on ten farms. Reviewing the data submitted by the farmers and providing any recommended edits/actions back to the farmers. This would include identifying missing or potentially incorrect data; commenting on any outliers; and suggesting diet reformulation if required.
Providing nutrition and other technical insights to support the programme development, content and delivery for the farmer discussion group meetings.
Developing proposals for future farm-based projects to improve feed utilisation (farm level) and feed efficiency (cow level). These will define future interventions and data collection needs; they will be tailored to individual farms or groups of farms - based on the analysis of farm data and discussions with the farmers.
