THE EVOLUTION OF VALACTA ATLANTIC DAIRY PRODUCTION 2016 STATS 1

You are getting a first glance at our new two-part electronic version of THE EVOLUTION OF VALACTA ATLANTIC DAIRY PRODUCTION. This new and improved version contains Valacta’s publishable data on cows and herds, by cow, by breed, by herd and by province.

In order to please our customers and key industry partners in Atlantic, we have decided to make some changes to our yearly publica-tion, The Evolution of Valacta Atlantic Dairy Production. So beginning this year, this publication will be broken down into two distinct publications. First, this one: our most awaited annual statistics on publishable herds and cows that are now available for you sooner than ever before! The second publication, which will be available in May, will feature provincial statistics, benchmarks and hot articles written by our experts. Both versions designed for electronic publication are now mobile friendly!

We thank all the sponsors who have decided to join us in this new adventure. We sure hope you like the switch from a paper to an electronic version just as much as we do as it has allowed us to reach you with the crucial information you need much sooner than before!

We begin this publication on a great note with the top 10 Canadian Herds according to the Performance Index. Congratulations to all of them and special congratulations to Sunny Point Farms from Noel, Nova Scotia who ranked 7th in the Canadian top 10 and is ranked first in the Atlantic Provinces. I tell you: these guys and gals know what to do with their data! Before I let you enjoy this first e-phase of your Dairy Evolution, which I know you are eager to dive into, I just wanted to emphasize the importance of this year’s theme for all of us at Valacta: All on the same team. And given all the challenges faced by the dairy industry as a whole and mostly by dairy producers, rest assured that now more than ever, Valacta is on YOUR team!

NEW YEAR,

NEW FORMAT!

PIERRE LAMPRON Chairman of Valacta

We are very happy to release the herd rankings in a simpler format that ensures that the information you need is in your hands almost as soon as the numbers are ready!

I wish to take this opportunity to congratulate all the producers who ranked as top herds in Atlantic for the 2016 Herd Performance Index: Sunny Point Farms Ltd., who finished 7th in Canada, and ranked #1 in Nova Scotia; Clarke Farms, top herd in New Brunswick with a HPI in the 99th percentile; Jewell Dale Farm Inc., top herd in Prince Edward Island; A & J Bent Farms Ltd. of Nova Scotia for finishing in the top 99th percentile while ranking 2nd provincially; and finally, Winding River Farms of Nova

Scotia as top robotic herd. Congratulations also to Lauchie and Jolene MacEachern of Folly River Farms Ltd. in Nova Scotia, who were just named Atlantic Outstanding Young Farmers, and will now move on to represent our region on a national level. They were much deserving of this award and we wish them the very best of luck!

The second part of our annual report will be sent to you later on, in May. We will then reveal the provincial statistics and benchmarks along with the latest information on the most profitable aspects of dairy farm management written by our experts.

We hope you enjoy this new format!

We congratulate the following which have achieved superior performance across all aspects of herd management.

The Herd Performace Index allocates points for performance in six different management areas and is an excellent barometer of overall herd performance. It is a great tool for monitoring progress from year to year and also allows herds to benchmark themselves against others.

“Milk urea nitrogen testing is an excellent tool. As a nutritionist, it helps me to prevent overfeeding of protein- which saves money on the farm. Also, it helps me fine tune rations in case I am underfeeding fresh cows. I recommend it on a regular basis, as the value provided far outweighs the cost.” - DANIEL SCOTHORN, SCOTHORN NUTRITION*

*The Dairy Composition section of PEI Analytical Laboratories tests all milk samples received as part of the Valacta herd recording program. The MUN analysis are also done at the PEI laboratories.

PROPER FEEDING IS CRUCIAL FOR MAXIMIZING MILK PRODUCTION.

I choose to put “Mun-ey” in my pocket!

Consequently, wasting nutrients is like throwing money out the window!

For more information on MUN or any other Valacta services, contact Customer Service at 1 800 266 5248, your Valacta technician, or Jeff Gunn at [email protected] or (902) 759-4866.
