WIN A KEENAN SYSTEM
WIN A KEENAN SYSTEM
THE Keenan System of TMR feeding is simple, flexible and proven to be successful. At the heart of the system is the Klassik mixer-wagon. What sets it apart from others is the Klassiks unique ability to chop and mix ingredients without destroying the feed structure that is critical to maintaining rumen and animal health. This is essential for the efficient conversion of farm-grown feeds and forages into milk and beef, resulting in higher returns.
The Klassiks unique mixing capability presents animals with the correct feed structure in a Total Mixed Ration (TMR) that encourages maximum dry matter intake. Correct feed structure, achieved through incorporating straw to the desired length and through gentle mixing, acts on the rumen wall to promote cud chewing.
This in turn aids digestion by raising the pH, leading to optimum rumen conditions which result in healthier stock that convert feed more efficiently.
The Klassik produces an open-textured ration that when offered ad-lib encourages animals to eat little and often. This reduces feed-related stress and competition and ensures all animals achieve their maximum dry matter intake.
Healthy and content animals with high dry-matter intakes are the foundation for long-term stable and profitable milk and beef production.
