The Bullvine audience has highlighted the importance of dairy cattle breed societies in the livestock industry, as we approach 2035. Breed societies are crucial in upholding cattle breeding standards, facilitating animal improvement, and offering marketing services. By 2050, precision in dairy farming is essential, with improvements in cattle breeds being a beacon of hope for the industry’s future. By 2035, dairy farmers will have access to twice as many genetic indexes for new traits covering animal function, health, welfare, and efficiency. Increased competition among companies offering advanced herd improvement technologies will require more data definition and industry standards. Advances in known gene action and gene insertion will involve proprietary rights and payments to purchase genetic material. A shift in breeding to focus on ‘productive – efficient – profitable – green friendly’ animals for both heifers and cows will also be necessary.
