Active Resolutions

All eligible resolutions will be posted to the Lactanet Resolutions website on March 18th, 2024. Lactanet will provide additional reference information where relevant to support further discussion of the resolution during the Comment Period. Resolutions will appear in one of three categories: Genetics, Milk Recording, Other. This will provide an opportunity for participants to learn more about each submission before voting begins.

At the discretion of the Board, Resolutions that are similar in nature may be combined for efficiency.
