Independent Ruminant Nutrition.Science-Led, Not Sales Driven.
Are you buying what your cows need, or what a salesman needs to sell? Independent advice you can rely on, month after month, not a one off recommendation
The cow at the centre of everything
When the cow is healthy and well managed, performance and profitability follow. Vacca Nutrition exists to bring clarity and technical discipline to ruminant nutrition by separating independent decision making, from product supply.
Independent Nutritional Consultancy
Vacca Nutrition provides independent nutritional consultancy for dairy farmers. We diagnose, explain, and prioritise, leaving the product decisions to you.
Independent Ration Formulation
Ration critique and formulation using AMTS. We focus on what the cows are actually doing, not just what the diet says on paper, linking intake, rumen function, and performance back to margin over feed.
System Analysis & Troubleshooting
Forensic diagnosis of bottlenecks in your system. From transition cow management to rumen function issues, we identify root causes rather than masking symptoms.
Youngstock Development
Lifetime performance planning for your replacement herd. We optimise age at first calving and growth targets to build a more profitable, resilient herd for generations.
Forage & Concentrate Efficiency
Getting the balance right between forage and purchased feed is where most margin is won or lost. We focus on how forage is performing in the system, how concentrates are being used, and whether the current approach is actually paying. The aim is simple: more from what you grow, and better returns on what you buy.
