Jacqui Suares OAM & Ginfo Project Coordinator says integration of data for farms is critical. She highlights it needs to be simple, precise and beneficial. We’ve got the information and we need to use it to look after our business #Herd21Au #Ginfo #dairy #dairygenetics #genomics

Dr Jeffrey Bewley Holstein Association USA states we can learn a lot from the sports industry and the way they use their data #Herd21AU #herdtesting #herdimprovement #buildingbetterherds #ImprovingHerds #dairydata #dataanalytics #datascience #genomics #dairygenetics

Dr Bewley Holstein Association USA says we can learn from other industries to conduct genetic evaluations within the dairy sector to provide valuable phenotypic info for improving genetic selection #Herd21AU #herdimprovement #buildingbetterherds #ImprovingHerds #dairydata #dairygenetics
