This project was the flagship for the future of suckler farming. Standard practice in this case should be to keep a daily record of the bulls’ activity, which would identify problems after three weeks. The issues that should have been examined are as follows:
1. Did the Tullamore Farm buy show bulls (ie overweight) or bulls fit for work? It would be advisable to purchase the bulls months ahead of the turnout date.
ADVERTISEMENT
2. Were the females treated and checked properly prior to the start of the breeding season?
3. Go back to the pedigree breeder and seek his advice. The pedigree breeder has the right to defend his reputation and the health status of his herd.
4. Rotate the bulls every three weeks.
How could the reliability of data collected on farm be adjusted to allow for the farm effect in each case?
The French Limousin system is targeted and has been producing the results for over 30 years.
Our society has taken 40 pieces of silver and backed a system that is not properly focused.
Breeding is not a finite science; therefore, the textbook does not work 100%.
