| The Cattle
Breeding Consultancy is based in Dorset, England and now covers the South
of England and the Midlands with client’s herds as far west as Cornwall,
east to Kent, north-east to Yorkshire and north-west to Scotland. Our
smallest herd is 50 cows and our largest is over 1,000 cows. Our average
herd size is about 150 cows. With
over 500 proven bulls on general availability the choice for the dairy
farmer was, and still is, completely bewildering. The intention then was
to offer a completely independent breeding advice service with no
influence from the semen companies or breed societies. This is still our
mission statement today and remains the reason why so many farmers look to
us for their breeding advice.
Our recommendations use
on all farms, an average of about 140+ bulls a year, about one third of the active sires
listed. These range from high production sires, low-cost production bulls, high type bulls and
breeders bulls to sound commercial sires offering real value for money.
Many farmers comment that they recoup most of the consultancy fees in the
money saved on semen against their normal budget yet they are often using
higher production and type sires than before.
