Whereas<\/strong> that Lactanet should have completed the data collection phase begun in 2021 aimed at understanding the prevalence of this syndrome and developing new tools and strategies to reduce the expression of this syndrome, which is too costly for breeders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore<\/strong> it is requested that Lactanet, Holstein Canada and the Dairy Farmers of Canada publish a progress report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/strong>
The information collected from Canadian dairy farmers is currently the topic of a graduate student\u2019s project at the University of Guelph to determine if the development of a national genetic evaluation system is warranted. Depending on the outcome of the research, a national system for the collection of Crampy data may be developed and implemented.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
