Farmer Sees Measureable Increase In Production

Creighton Barker has been farming for the past 36 years in Orangeville, IL. He has been on his current farm for three years and is currently milking 60 cows. In December of 2006, Creighton decided to purchase a 350 cubic foot Patz Model 800 Vertical Mixer.

Part of the reason that he opted for the Patz Model 800 Mixer was for its design. Creighton said, "It is big enough to feed the cows but compact enough for getting around the farm."

Perhaps most importantly, Creighton has noticed a measureable increase in production. "My cows are up 600 pounds on 60 cows," he said.
