Everybody knows that the better your investment, the better the payoff. At Prairie Estates Genetics, we know this: what you invest in your silage directly affects the quantity and quality of milk production. In other words, better IOFC.
So, if you’re looking for a better investment, stop stomaching the old-generation of seed you’re currently using and choose Next-Gen Seed that yields Next-Gen Results.
A better investment means better returns. As we mentioned, if you’re a dairyman, that better investment starts with seed. After over 20 years of research, we’ve developed our Next-Gen seeds, which optimize every dollar spent on your feed because they:
Are Easily Digestible:
With corn at $6.50 per bushel, every additional percentage point of total dietary starch increases IOFC by $.03. PEG corn silage can add an additional $.11 per head, per day to your IOFC
Balance Fiber & Starch:
Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDR) focused feed can incur a 10-15% drag in yield
Our seed is optimized for NDF and total starch
Produce More Milk:
PEG corn silage will add an additional $.11 per head, per day to your IOFC
Are Dairy-Specific:
Decades of intensive forage research + genetics testing + in-the-field results = high-performing dairy-specific hybrids that yield more digestible, nutrient-dense silage
We all know that when you plant a seed in the ground, you can’t just expect it to grow by itself. There is timing, planning, skill, and more that goes into the growing process in order to get the most out of your seed. In other words, it’s not a “set it and forget it” situation.
Similarly, Next-Gen Seed requires Next-Gen attention and expertise. Because of this, our Next-Gen Seed automatically comes with Next-Gen Service, which consists of forage experts to help you optimize on your seed’s potential, and in turn, milk production.
Excellent forage = more milk = better IOFC.
