Hostein milk cows (the nickname is white &
black milk cow) are the highest output breed of milk cows with
a long history breeding in the world. Introduced from America,
the colony of Hostein milk cows in our company is the only one
in China with the highest quality and the largest quantity
breeders. The characteristics of Hostein milk cows are
stability of genetic traits, large physiques with black and
white coats, high feed transformation rate, cold resistant,
strong adaptability, and so on. The milk output is high, and
average milk production is 13000 kg per cow annually. The milk
contains about 4.0% fat and 3.4% protein. The project of high
output milk cows has been listed into one of the "948" projects
of Ministry of Agriculture, a project of "Introduction of high
output milk cow breeders to speed up China’s milk industry
progress". The key breed for introduction is Hostein milk cow.
Our company has adopted embryo transfer technique, which
combine special hi-tech with classical breeding technique, and
hammered at rapid breeding of economical animals for a long
time. It is the first time in China to set up the rapid
breeding technique system of high output milk cow embryo
transfer. Now we have three breeding farms and two holding
companies, which are connected to the headquarter by computer
network to setup an database for monitoring the breeding
indexes, such as genetic sources (family trees) body weight,
health status, feed consumption, etc., between different farms.
According to the database, we can evaluate the breeding
capabilities of one age group to determine their breeding
values. Each cow has its health card from birth. Computer
stores all information about the clients, their contact
manners, and the breeders when and where to sell out, which are
convenient for us to do the follow-up service. Systems of
programmed managements have been established, including,
feeding procedure and feed formula, quarantine of some
infectious diseases, elimination of parasites, disease
monitoring, controlling and treating. The above data as an
archive are used not only to serve our clients for before-,
inter- and after-service, but also to train our staff members
to improve the qualities of ourselves, and finally the product.
In order to select and spread the qualified breeder, it is
essential to maintain the stability of genetic trait from the
original breeders. We own two strains of Hostein milk cow
breeders originally from U. S. A. and Australia. Apart from
taking the above managing measures, we select youth females as
donor goats, which show excellent reproduction properties. By
using embryo transfer technique, it is easy to transport
genetic material, and speed up the reproduction, and thus
enlarge our breeder population, and ensure the
quality.
