NZAEL Genetic Base Change
As of June 26, 2010 the New Zealand Animal Evaluation system has changed its genetic base to the group of cows that were born in 2000 (from 1995 base) and that had performance records for all traits in the evaluation system in the dairy season 2002/03.

For the Breeding Worth (BW) index you can expect the reported BW for each animal to be approximately $41 lower prior to this genetic base change.

OVERVIEW

Typifying our breeding philosophy, Legend offers the complete profitability package. Smaller than average, his daughters nonetheless produce at a level that will surprise many and... they get in calf on cue, are agressive grazers and have some of the highest components in the business. A good mating over most Holsteins as well as daughters of Eamonn, Belvedere, Dalton and Excellency. OK for use over maiden heifers.
