'I save on my feed costs with SEED2FEED'
Feed costs largely determine the total costs, also at Nick de Werdt's dairy farm in Sterksel. These costs have risen in recent years for various reasons, putting further pressure on the balance.
"In my quest to improve the operating result, I came into contact with Tim van Houtum, SEED2FEED-Advisor at KWS, who helps me to realize this." Nick de Werdt tells more about this in this video:
"The key to lowering feed costs turned out to be in the choice of crops and their cultivation. By focusing on the cultivation, maximizing the yield and quality potential of my own land and making even better use of the ration , I can now further increase feed efficiency on my dairy farm.”
Insight into feed costs is an important first step in this regard. "With Farmdesk, the management software for dairy farms, I can monitor my feed costs transparently on a daily basis. The software supports me in managing my feed ration and at the same time takes into account the choice of cultivation of the appropriate crops," says De Werdt.
"As part of the SEED2FEED concept, Farmdesk is therefore very suitable to keep the initiative in the quest to improve the balance of my dairy farm."
