Dr John Morton analysed survey and herd improvement data from more than 500 farms which provided a strong evidence-base for key extension messages. And yes, good genes means more milk regardless of the feeding system.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_blurb admin_label=”Further Reading” title=”Further Reading” url_new_window=”off” use_icon=”off” icon_color=”#8cc63f” use_circle=”off” circle_color=”#8cc63f” use_circle_border=”off” circle_border_color=”#8cc63f” icon_placement=”top” animation=”top” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_icon_font_size=”off” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” header_text_color=”#669933″]<\/p>\n
