“As nutritionists there is a lot that's expected of us on the farms we serve. DHIA helps us trouble shoot and make recommendations, so our nutrition is completed in an accurate manner. For our nutrition to truly matter, we need management tools. Right behind the communication we have with our dairymen, DHIA/Dart is the best tool we have!"
