More about CRV Holland: |

CRV attaches great value to breeding bulls
with excellent transmitting abilities that have highly
reliable first crop proofs. It is in our customer’s interest
that our bulls do as we’ve promised. Dairy farmers at home and
abroad can therefore use our proven sires with confidence.
Several factors add to the high reliability of HG sires:
Factor 1: The majority of
Dutch and Belgian dairy farmers participate in the testing of
340 bulls per year. To achieve a high reliability first crop
proof, no less than 150 daughters will contribute to a bull’s
proof, enabling a highly accurate estimation of his true
breeding value.
Factor 2: The chances of
breeding high quality sires are increased by the thorough
testing of bull dams. Each year, 200 heifers are evaluated in
the Delta Nucleus Herd under the same environmental
conditions. The heifers that pass the test successfully are
used extensively in the breeding programme. This programme
guarantees reliably tested bull dams.
Factor 3: As a result of
the high participation of Dutch dairy farmers in milk
recording and type classification, there is a lot of
information from many different farms available for each bull.
This again makes a highly accurate calculation of breeding
values possible. Breeding values for production are calculated
with the advanced test-day model. This model uses information
from every single test milking, resulting in a large amount of
information per individual animal. |
