Robert Fincham of Iowa State College urges careful selection of a herd sire. He advises buying from breeders with production testing and documented records, ensuring the sire comes from a healthy herd with disease control, and preferring proven sires or young bulls from good cow families producing at least 400 pounds of butterfat in a 306 day lactation.
