Can better nutrition actually change what shows up in the milk pail — and on the scale at weaning?
In this episode of That Ranching Podcast, Trevor sits down with Daryl Paskewitz and Twain Manning to talk milk quality, milk quantity, and what it really means for cow-calf producers. From independent dairy trials showing increased milk fat and production, to real-world ranch feedback like “the bags look fuller,” they unpack how improved digestion and nutrient utilization can help cows do more with less.
The takeaway? When a cow can convert lower-quality forage into higher-quality milk — without sacrificing her own condition — you’re putting more pounds on calves and setting up a healthier, more efficient herd.
