If you could get nearly a quarter more calf weight weaned per cow without adding more land, more labour or more cost, you would want to know about it.

That is exactly what the research shows when crossbred dams rear crossbred calves. An extra 8.5% from using crossbred calves. A further 14.8% from the better maternal environment crossbred dams provide. Total gain: 23.3% more calf weight weaned per cow compared to straight bred cows rearing straight bred calves.

The result is slaughter offspring that grow faster and finish heavier, produced from a smaller, more efficient breeding cow. You are not compromising anywhere. Both breeds are doing exactly what they are built for.

This is breed complementarity in action. And bull sale season is on right now. If you have been thinking about restructuring your breeding system to capture more of what hybrid vigour offers, the time to act is here.
