Teagasc Annual Report 2018: Discussion
Dr. Tom Kelly:
Three of our herds have crossbreds in them. I do not think any of them is as high as 50%. In Pallaskenry and Gurteen they are still black and white bred. There is an expansion plan for the Pallaskenry herd involving introducing some element of Jersey, mainly because it is out there in the industry and it wants to follow that trend.
