[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1019925, member: 1715"] Kris Ringwall with NDSU in western ND has been publishing some results on their study. They sold their large cows and then bred some the the remainder Low Line. The goal was to compare the "conventional herd" with the Lowline F1 herd. Convental cows weaned calves that were 48# heavier, but the lowline F1s weaned 51.9% of their weight while the convential herd weaned 46.2%. Key to me was that the Lowline F1s produced 32.4 vs. 23.6 pounds calf per acre. So why wouldn't commercial herds move in this direction? [/QUOTE]
