Are you using NM$ or TPI to pick sires? If so, do these formulas actually reflect your goals and consider your herd’s needs? If not, the right sires for your operation may not be at the top of any list. Ask your trusted Alta advisor about creating a custom genetic plan.

Your genetic decisions matter, and your herd is unique. So, why put your future into the hands of complicated industry formulas that don’t consider your herd’s needs? Partner with your Alta advisor and Alta BLUE LINK to create a custom genetic plan that meets your needs.

At Alta, we care about the success of your future herd. We believe that begins in the maternity pen, with the cow beginning her lactation and her newborn calf. Both cow AND calf need a FRESH START to be their best. Learn more ➡️ bit.ly/3J6RPxl (US Only) #altafreshstart

The Conservative Party of Canada's disqualification of a local candidate in the Oxford nomination sets a dangerous path of ignoring the grassroots to favour one parachute candidate who has no connection to the community. See my statement here: rickroth.ca/gerrit-van-dorla…

Great 🧵 Study summary of how enriching with colostrum can help with prevention and recovery!! #SCCL #AltaAdvantage #TrueBlue
Replying to @DairyatGuelph
If colostrum doesn't have strong quality, you can enrich colostrum to improve quality and see similar results. Studies show that diarrhea was reduced faster.
