How does crossbreeding lead to healthier cows with better fertility and longer lifespans? What are some of the problems that come with inbreeding?
To learn more, we invited one of the world’s most knowledgeable dairy crossbreeding experts. She tells us about the potential of crossbreeding, the limitations of inbreeding – especially among Holstein cows, and the benefits of the ProCROSS solution.
