Effect of including genetic progress in milk yield on evaluating the use of sexed semen and other reproduction strategies in a dairy herd
The objective of this study was to explore the importance of including genetic progress in milk yield when evaluating different reproductive strategies in a dairy herd by simulation modeling. The model used in this study was SimHerd V, a dynamic and mechanistic Monte Carlo simulation model of a dair...
