Jersey Genetic Recovery:
Your Tool
FEBRUARY, 1988: Do you
have any unregistered, purebred
Jerseys? If so, there is a program
designed to help you upgrade your
herd and improve your dairy
operation.
Since 1975, Jersey dairymen
across the country have been using
the Genetic Recovery Program to
identify and record their unregis
tered, purebred Jerseys. Over
95,000 Registered Jerseys have
resulted.
Genetic Recovery Jerseys have
topped sales across the country,
won top honors at major shows,
made outstanding production
records and produced young sires
that have been samples by major
AI bull studs.
The program is as easy as 1,2,3!
