[QUOTE="CharcoalWally, post: 436185, member: 3171"] It sounds like milk is your main priority , so I suppose you really want to focus on what's going to leave you a really good cow for the future. Concentrate on breeding a cow , and use a breed that's going to leave a good bullock as a side sell. Obviously I'd say a Simmental - that's a given - but the Shorthorn breed is much improved these days , and I've just written a post on another thread of my fond memories of the Whitebred Shorthorn. I think @[USER=85]choochter[/USER] mentioned that the Whitebred Shorthorn is also covered by the Shorthorn Premium Scheme , so both these breeds would have that going for them [I]if[/I] the store/suckled calf buyer is prepared to pay a premium through the ring for them. I'd concentrate on these three. On current market conditions they're the most saleable. [/QUOTE]
