Let’s Talk Dairy Bonus Episode: Bull Selection Targets
About this episode
Teagasc is running a weekly Let's Talk Dairy webinar series which is also being made available as a bonus podcast episode.
In this webinar, Stuart Childs, Teagasc Dairy Specialist, discusses bull selection targets. Stuart recaps on an overall guideline that Teagasc have issued to people in relation to the breeding targets for this year.
How breeding can influence the direction of your herd is also discussed. In the last couple of years there has been less emphasis on the selection of bulls but there is more of a focus put on it now as opposed to a herd trying to improve the breeding decisions for the farm itself.
Stuart takes us through the 2021 bull selection targets relating to the thresholds of EBI, Fertility, Milk and Health.
