Dairy Bull Associations Boost Profits and Breeding
A United States Department of Agriculture study notes rising dairy incomes due to bull associations. Scrub bulls fade as better bred bulls dominate, with New Windsor Maryland reporting three years of dam and daughter production gains. In 1918, 16 of 21 daughters exceeded dams in butter fat and 15 in milk plus butter fat, while average yields rose from 5 560 to 6 528 pounds of milk and from 219 to 263 pounds of butter fat. Net profits stem from cooperative ownership and lower costs for feeding bulls.
