The predicted performance of nine crossbreeding strategies for milk production and reproductive traits and cow live weights (LW) were compared. The strategies were selected because of their superiority to many others. The data were from crosses of Ayrshire (A), Brown Swiss (B), Friesian (F) and S...

Prediction of performance of alternative crossbreeding strategies

Crossbreeding parameters for milk production and reproductive traits and for cow live weight (LW) of crosses of Ayrshire (A), Brown Swiss (B), Friesian (F) and Sahiwal (S) cattle were estimated using data from a dairy herd in the lowland coastal tropics of Kenya. An individual animal model was fi...

Estimation of individual crossbreeding effects on milk production and reproductive traits and on cow live weight

Data on accumulated life performance of crosses of Ayrshire (A), Brown Swiss (B), Friesian (F) and Sahiwal (S) cattle collected over a 21- years period from a dairy ranch in the lowland tropics of Kenya were analysed to estimate additive and non-additive genetic effects of economic traits. These ...

An individual animal model was fitted to data from a crossbred herd in the lowland coastal tropics of Kenya to estimated breed cross means for a total of 25 genotypes having different proportions of Ayrshire (A), Brown Swiss (B), Friesian (F) and Sahiwal (S) genes. These means were then regressed...
