The Case for Grazing Dairy Cows [PDF]
Agronomy, 2021 The case for grazing dairy cows at pasture is reviewed in six categories: (i) optimal land use for food production; (ii) soil carbon sequestration; (iii) carbon footprint; (iv) animal health and welfare; (v) effects on human health of milk produced from grazed pasture; and (vi) consumer demand for milk from grazed cows.

Dairy cows: in the age of the genotype, #phenotypeisking [PDF]
Animal Frontiers, 2020 The limiting factor for future evaluations of new traits of economic importance is phenotypes. Genomics is an ideal technology used to spread the value of diffcult-to-measure phenotypes throughout the population. There are many actors in the chain required to create that beneft and the creation of those value chains for new and diffcult to measure ...
