“Cow comfort, high-quality forage, and a focus on details have been the plan for operations at Sleegerdale Farms, Belmont, Ontario. Quality Seeds’ alfalfas and grasses have been the basis for a balanced high forage ration that is being fed to a mixed Holstein and Jersey herd. Their focus has been on rumen health, which in turn has led to profitable milk production. Mike has blended Quality Seeds alfalfa along with meadow fescue, tall fescue, and orchard grass to achieve this. With a detailed agronomy plan added to the mix, the results speak for themselves. Feeding the soil, maintaining excellent soil health, executing a detailed harvest plan, and selecting the proper seed for each field have allowed the Sleeger family to reach the high standards that they strive for.”
