Genomic testing in your heifers… does it work and is it worth it?
September 17, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 2:30 pm
| FreeGenomic testing is becoming increasingly utilised in bull testing and has been commercially available to test heifers for a number of years – genomic bulls are proving themselves in the field with increasing reliability and we are now analysing heifer data to assess their performance against their genomic predictions.
Come for a lunchtime meeting and buffet in collaberation with NMR and Zoetis to find out more about recent advances in testing heifers including the dairy wellness traits along with how it could benefit your herd.
We will also be demonstrating how parent average predictions will vary compared to genomic predictions with a follow through to lactation.
RSVP by 13th September to sophiaelworthy@torchfarmvets.com if you would like to join us.
