When it comes to creating healthier, longer-living cows, genetics are the engine and nutrition is the fuel. This week Dr. Kevin Ziemba, Global Support Specialist at STgenetics, discusses strategies for better cow management, focusing on improving cow welfare, genetics, and reducing epigenetic risks. Our discussion covers the importance of managing both sides of the genetic equation and the importance of being  as meticulous with female selection as we are with sire selection. This conversation will make you rethink traditional methods and explore management practices to ensure healthier, longer-lasting, profitable herds.

Kevin Ziemba is the Eastern Region Manager and part of the Genetic Development Team for STgenetics, where he and his team provide genetic support and resources to dairy producers. Kevin graduated from Cornell University where he earned a master’s degree in quantitative genetics. He is an active alumna, returning to Cornell to guest lecture the Dairy Genetics class each year and has coached the Cornell dairy judging team.
