Synopsis
Excerpt from Grading Up the Dairy Cow by the Use of Pure-Bred Sires: Results From Sixteen Years of Experiment at the Dominion Experimental Farm, Nappan, N. S
What, then, is the most economical policy for the average farmer to adopt in order that his herd average may be increased to a profitable point?
The three main factors governing an increase in production are breeding, feeding and wee-ding. Bearing in mind, then, that the milking propensities of an individual are inherited, not acquired, a carefully thought out policy should be one that would develop these inherited qualities to a. Maximum.
The selection of the herd sire is undoubtedly one of the first factors to con sider in a herd improvement policy. The important part that a sire plays in the development of a profitable herd from average grade cows of very common breeding, is clearly demonstrated in this bulletin, which presents the data collected from a grading-up experiment started in 1911 at the Experimental Farm, Nappan, Nova Scotia.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book chronicles an experiment that began in 1911, in which common grade dairy cows were selectively bred over generations with pure-bred sires of either Ayrshire or Holstein breed. The author meticulously documents the milk production levels and profit margins of both the offspring and their dams across five lactation periods. This provides valuable insights into the significant benefits of using proven sires with established milk production lineage to improve the profitability of a dairy herd. The book also illustrates the importance of carefully selecting and retaining the most productive individuals and highlights the impact of a sire's genetic makeup on the type, color, and production characteristics of their progeny. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334549571_0
