Evaluation of the breeding strategy for milk yield of Holstein Friesian cows on large scale dairy farms in Malawi
Over the last two decades, dairy cattle management in Malawi has been oriented towards increasing milk yield per animal. One consequence of this process has been reliance on Holstein Friesian bull semen from temperate regions. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the performance of Holste...
