An increasing number of our customers want a cow that is suited to maximising milk from grazed grass and limited concentrates. They also want a cow that calves regularly and at the same time each year. Here at Genus we aim to respond to our customers requirements.
The Grassland Breeding programme aims to identify bulls that breed daughters that are best suited to a grassland system. Bulls selected for the Grassland programmes have been selected for: High female fertility Longevity Low somatic cell counts Lower body weight with higher body condition score Good udders, feet and legs Calving ease Milking speed and temperament
The dams of these bulls have performed in the top 1% of the breed in herds managed on predominately grazing systems. They will be thoroughly progeny tested in grassland herds in the UK, Ireland and Australia as part of our global breeding programme. Why not be part of an exciting programme, that is testing grassland genetics in the UK for the UK dairy farmer? Click here to find out how you can join |
