Dairy Herd Network - Dairy Management: It’s spring cleaning time again - Latest News - Current Stories, Commentary, Markets: "Now is the time to prepare for the long hot summer:
1. Clean out high organic matter dirt (MUD) in pastures and lots and add new dirt, especially in calving areas.
2. Clean your barn cooling fans now and whenever they look dirty. Dirty fan shields can reduce fan efficiency by 50 percent. If cows are in the barn or holding area, run fans 24 hours a day. This not only moves air to cool cows, it also helps to remove moisture and dry the place out."
