For example, when the cow steps out of the VMS, does she then immediately get a ration with lots of concentrate-like by-products?<br \/>\nIf this is a high basic ration we have to look out for rumen acidification. A gift of 2 kg or better less, per visit should be the maximum.<br \/>\nHowever, if you only feed roughage with a lot of flavor (good intake) at the feeding fence what has also good structure value, then the cows can get 3 kg or even more per VMS visit.<\/p>\n<p>You can change this setting under &#8220;Unit&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>If you set a higher concentrate feed rate than 2\u00bd kg per visit, remember that there should <u>always<\/u> be good and sufficient feed in front of the feeding fence. A cow shouldn\u2019t eat 3 kg of concentrate on an empty stomach &#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>With larger rations of concentrated food per visit, we should also pay extra attention to whether or not the cow gets enough time to eat it during her visit. So, the dosing speed per VMS and per cow also plays an important role. (See Tip of the Month &#8211; May 2014)<\/p>\n<p>With a 6 minute visit to the VMS, a dosing speed of 400 grams per minute is at most 2.4kg.
