Genetic gain is vital for profit!
Genetic gain is real; the benefits are long lasting and compounding.  Breeding better cows pays off in increased production, and better type that enhances longevity.   

The Australian Dairy Herd Improvement Report for 2010, shows that AI-bred cows produce, on average, 24kg of butterfat and 20kg of protein more per lactation than Natural Service bred cows.  Or to view it another way, herds that have 10% or fewer AI-bred animals average 5823 litres/lactation but herds with 80% or more AI-bred average 6854 litres/lactation - more than 1000 litres more per lactation.
