Myth

Male dairy cows are shot on farm

Fact

NB Yes, a lot do get shot, but I think it’s a small percentage and we can reduce these numbers further by improving sexed semen.

If we can construct the supply chains that need Holstein beef there are good returns available, the company which takes ours has a really good route to market that is now totally dependent on dairy-bred beef.

They also say the beef quality is as good as any other breed.
