The other component of the app is to monitor several feed management metrics. Dry matter intake, dry matter intake efficiency, milk nitrogen efficiency and phosphorus intake and excretion can be evaluated. This information can be graphed by group or by the lactating herd on a monthly basis. A dairy producer can monitor how ration changes affect these various metrics and opens the door for discussion on what are realistic benchmarks for the herd and where opportunities lie for improvements.
Also included in this app is the phase I portion of the DairyCents mobile app. Its objective was to provide an awareness of what IOFC should look like at three milk production levels: 65, 75, and 85 pounds. A very simplistic ration using market values for alfalfa hay, corn and soybean meal along with the all milk price for the respective months provide an insight to what IOFC may look like for a specific milk production level. The feed price component provides insight to how costs vary across the country for various commodities.
