HI Edition 303!

We made the promise in January already; beginning in March, HI will announce one name each month from the compiled top-10 most influential breeding herds from the last 25 years, which were selected by a record number of readers. From the outset, the significance of this list is underscored by nr.10! HI’s March issue also takes you along to three other top herds: Green-Acres (US), Wilder Holstein (DE) and Westcoast in Canada.

Sire news is provided in large measure by the American production icon Supersire, with a magnificent special. Lots of attention is also given to the now high-ranking progeny proven bulls Passat and Rodanas, as well as the Swiss champion maker O’Kaliber. Plus, very importantly, HI looks back on the progeny proven results of the highest DNA bulls from 2014. 

You can also read all about the rich breeding qualities of Shoremar S Alicia and Tir-An Neblina as well as a number of the most influential polled cows. The American professor Chad Dechow explains how old bloodlines can be given new opportunities. And we visit Belgium for a preview of the upcoming European show in Libramont. All these varied topics, and much more, can be found in this issue!
