The heredity of the bull also plays a significant role. For our heifers, who are served for the first time at 15 months, we preferably use <strong>Australian<\/strong> or <strong>Canadian bulls<\/strong>, who pass on good breeding values, such as calving ease or a reduced gestation period (up to 8 days).
