Sustainable breeding objectives and possible selection response: Finding the balance between economics and breeders' preferences.

Journal of dairy science - 1 Dec 2016

Fuerst-Waltl Birgit, Fuerst Christian, Obritzhauser Walter, Egger-Danner Christa

Abstract excerpt

To optimize breeding objectives of Fleckvieh and Brown Swiss cattle, economic values were re-estimated using updated prices, costs, and population parameters. Subsequently, the expected selection responses for the total merit index (TMI) were calculated using previous and newly derived economic values. The responses were compared for alternative scenarios that consider breeders' preferences. A dairy herd with...
