In this episode of Cow-Side Conversations, Andy Bollinger of Meadow Spring Farm in Lancaster County, PA reflects on how someone once told him that the best dairy farmers are not great at any one aspect of farming, but are good at three key areas: heifer management, cow management and raising your forages. He talks about the unique feeding system he has implemented over the years to maximize forage quality, how he has worked to boost plant and soil health, and how he manages a workforce of trustworthy and highly motivated employees. Andy also shares how his team has managed this summer’s heat wave and what he learned from his parents about the farm transition process.
