RESEARCH PROVEN


South Dakota State University Study

The results showed:

  • Cows fed Stand Strong showed improved feed efficiency 
  • Digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, ADF and NDF all improved
  • Stand Strong cows averaged 89.29 lbs. of milk per day compared to 88.85 lbs. per day for cows fed the control ration.
  • Stand Strong cows averaged 11 fewer open days than controls
Horizontal bar chart comparing "Days Open" for Control (128 days, yellow) and Stand Strong (117 days, green). The Control bar is longer. Legend indicates color coding for each group.
Bar graph comparing management level milk production. The Stand Strong group (green bar) produced 89.29 lbs, higher than the Control group (yellow bar) at 88.85 lbs. Y-axis ranges from 88.4 to 89.4 lbs.

University of Wisconsin – Platteville Study

The results showed:

  • Stand Strong cows were significantly more efficient, producing more milk per pound of feed
  • +4% efficiency improvement in spring
  • +8% efficiency improvement in summer
  • Significantly increased butter fat percent in both seasons (P<0.01)
  • Performance benefits held steady even under summer heat stress
Bar graph showing butter fat percentages in milk for Control and Stand Strong cows. In May, Stand Strong cows have higher butter fat than Control; in August, both groups have less, but Stand Strong remains higher.
Bar graph showing lbs of milk per lb of feed for Control (yellow) and Stand Strong (green) groups in May and August. Stand Strong shows a 4% increase in May and 8% increase in August compared to Control.
