State Bull Records
Exceeds Average
The record of the bulls used
in North Carolina's artificial
breeding program exceeds that
of the national average for bulls
in artificial breeding programs.
?' "Probably no other state in the
United States has a group of
bulls that will average as high
as the bulls now in service in
North Carolina," declares T. C.
Blalock, dairy specialist for the
N. C. State College Extension
Service.
All of the bulls used in the
State's artificial program are
"proven" which means that five
or more, of their daughters have
exceeded the production records
of their mothers.
On the other hand, according
to Bureau of Dairy Industry, a
part of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, only 39 per cent of
all bulls in artificial bfeeding
service in the United States had
as many as five daughters with
actual production records.
In North Carolina, the (bulls
used In the artificial breeding
program are selected from the
top 2 per cent of all proven buls.
Comparison of production
records of daughters of Holstein
bulls used in artificial breeding
programs show North Carolina
bulls have sired daughters who
produced an average of 14.381
pounds of milk and 538 pounls
of butterfat as compared to a
national average of 12,704
pounds of milk and 466 pounds
of butterfat.'
Comparisons of other breeds
show North Carolina "proven"
bulls ahead there too.
