Phoenix Feeds has a calf specialist on your side.

Gabby provides on-farm support and uses a variety of tools to help catch issues early before they become bigger problems. She brings full-service support and the technology to back it up, including:

- ATP Meter: Swabs surfaces like calf buckets, bottles, and utensils to measure cleanliness and catch sanitation issues early.
- Fogger: Diagnoses ventilation problems by tracking airflow through the barn, taking the guesswork out of a common calf health stressor.
- Growth Modeling Program: Plug in your feeding program, calf age, and barn temperature to predict daily growth rates and stay on track. The first 60 days set the growth curve for life.

From milk replacer and calf starter to electrolytes and colostrum, we’re here to support your calf program every step of the way.

You need an inoculant that can perform across a range of harvest conditions.

Recently, Novonesis conducted an internal review of over 350 alfalfa haylage samples from a third-party forage laboratory, confirming that both SiloSolve®MC and SiloSolve®FC prove to be exceptional options for alfalfa haylage inoculation.

A key finding from the data: SiloSolve® FC may offer added benefits, especially when alfalfa is chopped wetter than ideal.

While the data evaluated alfalfa silage, thousands of tons of grass silage have shown and support the use of SiloSolve®MC or SiloSolve®FC with excellent preservation and feed quality characteristics.

Get the full breakdown from Ryan Royer DVM, Technical Service Manager at Novonesis on our blog:

Discover how the right silage inoculant helps protect feed quality, reduce spoilage risk, and deliver consistent nutrition for dairy operations.

Congratulations to the UMaine Dairy Challenge Team on bringing home 3rd place for their farm evaluation in the North American Intercollegiate Dairy Challenge!🥉👏

The contest was held in last month in Sioux Falls, South Dakota with 282 student participants from 42 Universities across the U.S. and Canada.

The Dairy Challenge is a two-and-a-half-day competition where four-person teams evaluate a well-managed dairy farm business and present management recommendations to a panel of industry and academic judges.

This achievement reflects months of preparation, teamwork, and a strong foundation in dairy knowledge. From weekly training sessions to hands-on farm evaluations, these students put their skills to the test on a national stage and delivered an impressive result.

Join us in congratulating the 2026 team on a job well done. Phoenix is a proud sponsor of the UMaine Dairy Challenge Team to support the next generation of dairy leaders.
