NUMBER 7

TEQUILA TIME

The Time Has Come...

We learned decades ago, when a hired hand doesn’t want to work for you, send him on his way. Hopefully, Packer Nation will send their whiny prima donna hired hand on his way. History has shown that your incredible fan base will continue to ﬁll Lambeau, no matter which hired hands are on the ﬁeld.

“...takes the swelling out and keeps the milk in the tank.” — Cassie Rasmussen

UDDER SITE DAIRY, HARLAN, IOWA Rasmussen Family: Corey, Laura, Ryle and Cassie (pictured) 300 cows, 90 lbs, SCC 150,000

“We got a sample of Udder Comfort™ at the Dairy Expo 10 years ago and we’ve used it ever since,” say Corey and Laura Rasmussen. They operate their 300-cow Udder Site Dairy, Harlan Iowa with children Cassie and Ryle. Cow comfort is a big priority with good ventilation, sand bedding and attention to details. “We see a response by the next milking with Udder Comfort. It’s a key part of managing healthy udders and quality milk, along with nutrition, consistent milking process and clean sand-bedded freestalls,” says Corey. “Udder Comfort takes the swelling out and keeps the milk in the tank,” adds daughter Cassie visiting our booth at Central Plains Dairy Expo in March.

“We use it after each milking for 4 days on fresh cows, and on any other cow with edema, flakes or hardness. We just don’t need intramammary mastitis treatments anymore.”
