Update: 2025-09-04
Description
Production excellence has achieved record-breaking results through systematic integration of genetics, nutrition, and management. South Africa projects record milk production in 2024, with average production reaching 16.1 liters per cow per day. Globally, milk yield per cow has doubled in forty years.
World-Class Examples:
- San José farm (Spain): 4,300 Holstein cows producing 60+ million liters annually
- Average 46.1 kg milk per cow per day
- "Alta 4-EVENT COWS" concept: healthy calving, bred once, no abortion, no health issues
Key Technologies:
- Genomic selection enables performance evaluation from birth DNA samples
- Advanced nutrition targets 14-17% protein in dry matter
- Feed additives like Actisaf Sc 47 increase milk yield by 1.72 kg daily
Success Factor: Integrating precision breeding, advanced nutrition, efficient milking systems, and comprehensive health management.
