Genomic data enables genetic evaluation using data recorded on low-middle income country smallholder dairy farms

Genetic evaluation is a central component of a breeding program. In advanced economies, most genetic evaluations depend on large quantities of data that are recorded on commercial farms. Large herd sizes and widespread use of artificial insemination create strong genetic connectedness that enables t...
