At the request of producers, Dairy Farmers of Ontario is stepping up its milk bulk tank testing starting June 1.
George MacNaughton, director of production at the milk marketing board, says herd managers want to be able to see their milk composition, butterfat and protein content more often, so that they can change their rations and maximize returns.
