Division Delivery prohibitions

Milk may not be delivered as ‘haymilk’ within ten days after calving.

When cows that have been fed silage (fermented fodder) are used, there must be a waiting period of least 14 days.

As regards alpine animals on their farms which have been fed silage (fermented fodder), either they must be fed silage-free food for 14 days before they are driven up to alpine pastures, or their milk can be classed as ‘haymilk’ only once they have spent 14 days on alpine pastures (owned by the haymilk supplier). No silage may be produced or used as feed on the alpine pasture.
