Webinar: Helping your farmers get the most from their herd's genetics

Past Event

Monday, 20 November 2023

10:00am - 12:00pm


If you're a vet, consultant or breeding company, join us for this webinar to learn how to have more meaningful conversations with your farmers about their dairy breeding decisions.

Marco Winters, our head of animal genetics, will explain how herd genetic reports help you see the breeding potential of a herd's milking cows and youngstock. You'll also learn what they tell you about traits and inbreeding values.

We will share some of the outcomes from the genetic workshops which we've been running across GB with dairy farmers, which have covered:

  • Creating clear breeding goals tailored to a farm's requirements
  • How to access and analyse a herd's genetic potential with a personalised report
  • Identifying a herd's baseline and pinpointing areas for improvement
  • Evaluating data and choosing the right bulls for a herd

You will also gain access to our bespoke workbook, which can be used to help your dairy farming clients write their very own breeding plans.

This webinar is for third parties only. Please don't attend if you're a dairy farmer/levy payer.
