Dr Tom Tylutki, AMTS CEOOctober 13, 2022Formulating for Profit and a better Environment
Our own, Tom Tylutki, will use the CNCPS-based AMTS formulation model to look at the effect various feeds and diets will have on emissions. The excretion and emission equations in the CNCPS allow you to formulate with those results in mind. Tom discusses some of the thoughts and products mentioned in earlier webinars but then pivots some what to look at where real efforts can be placed. What are the best strategies. For more of Tom’s past formulation focused webinars; look at 2015, 2016, 2020, Feb 2021, and Oct 2021

Dr Tom Tylutki: Feeding Strategies for crazy times
When Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022 it exacerbated an already volatile world pricing structure for feed, fuel, labor, and nearly every other input in food production. There is serious concern of global food shortages, extraordinary food cost inflation in countries that can get food, and supply chain problems for those countries that do have food to export. Combined with predictions of continued drought in major grain producing areas and the complications of entering the third year of a global pandemic, the outlook is grim. Tom looks a some of the issues he is seeing and advises on strategies for maximizing production not only to weather the crisis but also to make as much milk for a struggling world food supply. This is a long, scary webinar. We had great questions from around the world. We were honored to be joined by most of our AMTS distributors who asked questions or offered insights on their part of the world.
