Bull Customers Fact File

Farm Operation Type (i)

 

 

Type (i) Modern large-scale dairy unit from 300 to 1000+ cows.
This customer uses the Hereford firstly for its white head to distinguish beef calves from dairy and requires batches of fertile bulls with sound feet in working condition that won't give calving problems. Whilst this type of customer is fully focused on milk production, the Hereford provides an opportunity to add value to beef calves building a reputation for suckler heifer replacements and grass fed steers.
