Description

In this episode of Pioneering Wisconsin’s Ag Future, Pioneer Territory Manager Alex Weldon and Field Agronomist Aricka Wech sit down with nutritionists Pete Draymond, Duane Splain, and Eric Starting to discuss an emerging opportunity in dairy nutrition: feeding high oleic soybeans to dairy cows.

High oleic soybeans are gaining attention for their nutritional benefits, potential to improve cow performance, and impact on milk quality. The group dives into:

  • How high oleic soybeans fit into dairy rations
  • Nutritional differences compared to conventional soybeans
  • On-farm results in milk yield, butterfat, and protein
  • Challenges with sourcing, processing, and logistics
  • Economics compared to bypass fats and other protein sources
  • Future adoption trends and consumer demand
