FARM HISTORY AND GENERAL INFORMATION |
|
Huffard Dairy Farms is located in the mountains of southwest Virginia and has been in the family for more than 200 years. Our grandfather, James Schultz Huffard, Sr., acquired Registered Jerseys in 1929. His philosophy of breeding for profitable production and sound, functional type continues today at Schultz Jerseys. Presently, 300 cows are milked twice a day, with total cow numbers approaching 360. All milking cows are housed as one group and fed a TMR consisting of corn silage, alfalfa haylage, high moisture corn and grains. The grain mix consists of soybean meal, distillers grains and other concentrate, commodity and by-pass sources. Over 360 head of young stock are also housed and raised on the farm. Fairway Jerseys are housed here and is a partnership between Dr. Joe Lineweaver and Huffard Dairy Farms. Schultz Jersey genetics has also been influential in the A.I. industry, through proven and sampling sires. To see which bulls are available and how they are doing today click here.
