Northcoast Lamb Co-op Presentation at OEFFA ConferenceLaura DeYoung
To meet demand for direct marketed lamb in the greater, The Northcoast Lamb Co-Op was created with the support of a Sustainable Agricultural Research Education (SARE) grant to implement value based lamb production criteria. The co-op will be using carcass scanning for acceptance of lamb to market (as well as for NSIP EBVs). The goal is to provide consistent, high quality lamb to local restaurants and groceries.
The co-op will be recruiting producers to participate in selling lamb locally. By implementing carcass scanning, this procedure should reduce the excess fat and inconsistent quality which can damage the quality of the brand. Local producers can take advantage of ultrasound technology to improve the overall quality of their flocks, making carcass scanning available and affordable to co-op producers. The outcome should be better meat quality and marketing, leading to profitability and competitiveness.

KMDP has built up rich knowledge and experience as regards good practice forage production and preservation for smallholder, medium and large scale dairy farms (from seed to feed). In addition to that, it has successfully piloted commercialization of quality forages and of forage contracting services. This was achieved through the SPEN model and the concept of “maize train” (i.e. mechanized agricultural contracting services for maize production, harvesting and silage making), and by facilitating introduction of innovative machinery for making baled silages. Through replication and upscaling, this will ensure enhanced access of quality forages for small medium and large-scale dairy farms.
In 2018 KMDP-II also started a pilot on introduction of feed rationing software to help optimizing total rations and margin over feeds. KMDP participates in sector platforms that discuss forage availability in Kenya and supported the National Fodder Conference in Nakuru in December 2017 and the Animal Production Society in Nanyuki in March 2018

protects and improves the natural environment, the
social and economic conditions of farmers, their
employees and local communities, and safeguards the
health and welfare of all farmed species.”

17. The Sustainable Farm and Food Initiative is being developed by a
coalition of Ontario farm organizations in collaboration with
representatives from the food and beverage sector, academia,
and non-government organizations.
The goal is to develop an understanding of the sector’s needs
through a consultation process that will include stakeholders
across the value chain. The long-term intent of the initiative is to
clarify and streamline sustainability initiatives by benchmarking
program equivalencies and harmonizing verification standards.

25. Livestock Effects
via Dissociated Feed Production
• Reduction of forages in rotations (grains more
easily mechanized)
• Soil erosion
• Nutrient depletion and accumulation
• Reduced biodiversity
• GHGs (soil carbon oxidation, fuel, N fertilizer)
• Footprint per gram animal protein amplified as
characterized by feed conversion

27. Project Purpose
• Original question: what is the environmentally viable
level and mix of livestock in Ontario?
• Livestock production in tonnes of protein
• Provide thought-provoking basis for the answer
• Using a theoretical farm
• Come at it from two perspectives
• Livestock feed requirements and manure output
• Ideal crop rotations and crop inputs
28. Project Concept
• Represent Ontario by 1000 acres
• Land class
• Ideal crop rotation
• Yields, convert to feed (tonnes)
• Four livestock species
• Feed consumption/year (tonnes)
• Manure output (nutrient profile vs crop
requirement)
• Bedding usage/species
• Measure livestock production in value of protein
production for each species
29. Model Farm Land Type
• GIS Data collection
• Categorized each county, chose top 90-
100% ag productive land counties
• Essex, Lambton, Kent, Elgin, Perth,
Middlesex, & Oxford
30. Farm Layout
• 25% marginal land
• 70% agricultural productive land
• 5% environmentally sensitive land
1000 Acre Breakdown
• MarginalLand:250 acres
• AgricultureProductiveLand:700acres
• EnvironmentallySensitiveLand:50acres
32. Environmentally Beneficial
Rotation
• Fours year forage
• Prevent erosion
• Water filtration
• Soil health
• Nitrogen supply for next crop
• Increasing diversity C-S-W compared to C-C or

• Increases average yields
• Assumed >3.5% organic matter
• Allow residue removal such as corn silage
fieldcropnews
35. Marginal Land & Total Acreage
• Planted 40% of 250 Marginal Land acres as
forage
• Grazed by cattle
36. Crop – Feed Linkages
• Convert each crop into tonnes
• Convert from tons to tonnes
• Standard bushel/tonne values
•
37. Beef - Cows
• Dry cows barn fed Dec-April
• 2.5% of their body weight (1400 lbs - 635
kg)
• Lactating cows pasture fed May-Nov
• including calf at side
• 5% of body weight (1400 lbs – 635 kg)
38. Beef - Young Stock & Feedlot
• Young stock fed same manner as cows
• 15-20% of cow numbers kept back
• Feedlot cattle on feed 145 days
• 2.25% of body weight consumed (1200 lbs – 545 kg)
39. Beef Yearly Feed Consumption
• 1 cow, 0.2 young stock, and 0.8 feedlot
44. Swine Yearly Feed Consumption
• 1 sow and 23.25 piglets (wean till market)
45. Meat Protein
• Dressing Percentage (DP)
• % of live animal as carcass
• Carcass Cutting Yield (CCY)
• % of carcass as meat
• Protein percentage of meat
ken’smeat
46. Milk Protein
• 9238 kg milk/year per cow
• 3% protein
• 277.14 kg protein yearly per cow
Telegraph.co.uk
47. Egg Protein
• 90% egg production
• 329 eggs per year
• 6 g protein per egg
• 1.971 kg protein yearly per layer
Telegraph.co.uk
48. Pairing Monogastrics & Ruminants
• Primary focus maximizing forages
• Cannot maximize all feed with just pairs
• Protein production can be high with pairs
despite crop usage
• Dairy & Swine, Beef & Broilers over 50 tonnes
• Need to maximize both values
• Groups of species
• Again, maximize forages first
55. Return to Mixed Farming? Yes and No
• This model accepts economies of scale are still
required
• There are crop and feed budget interactions that
cannot be ignored
• Achievable in alternative models:
– Multi-enterprise large farms
– Via crop allocation among independent farmers
– Any system that gets forages on all soils in the rotation
56. Today:
• What is ‘Sustainability’?
• Sustainability initiatives in Agriculture
• An example of a sustainable farm (model)
• If time permits – ‘token crop content’
– annual forages

64. Advice to Producers: What can you do?
• Use nutrients and energy carefully
• Increase diversity in feed production and
improve field practices
– Crop rotation
• (eg Corn/Soy vs. Corn/Soy/Wheat/Forages)
– Advantageous timing of manures
• Assuming $$$ to be a proxy for carbon and
nutrients: be profitable!
