The Motor Rally 'Way for Milk' Made It to the Lloyd Wicks Farm - Grasshill Farm
Источник: The DairyNews
The farm is among 10 Canadian Champion Producers. It received Master Breeder Holsteins award three times.
Grasshill is a family farm focusing on the development of 'profitable genetics' - i.e.animals with the will to work and the type to sustain high production year after year.
Originally started by Lloyd’s parents, Delmar & Mary Wicks, Grasshill has progressed from leasing its first cows (to establish which genetics it wanted to base the herd on), to the breeding of 5 Canadian Champion Producers, 10 EX cows, and exporting cattle to over 60 countries, among them top show and production winners in countries such as England, Ireland, and Australia.
Embryo transplantation work and bull sales both domestically and abroad have augmented heifer & milk sales, and early on led to our policy of limiting exposure in the show ring in the interests of protecting the herd’s long-held CHAH status.
Nowadays Lloyd Wicks is actively breeding goats.
