Comparison of sire evaluation methods in Holstein Friesian in the central highlands of Ethiopia
First lactation records (387) of Friesian-Boran crossbred cows, daughters of 37 Holstein Friesian (HF) sires were analyzed. Holstein Friesian sires were evaluated based on breeding values estimated considering first lactation 305- days milk yield of their progeny using 4 sire evaluation methods, viz...
