Les vaches canadiennes ont notamment souffert de la concurrence des vaches laitières importées, qui sont plus productives en termes de quantité. Mais pour leurs défenseurs, elles n'en sont pas moins rentables, en raison notamment de leur grande rusticité : elles sont robustes, vivent longtemps, mangent peu et sont appréciées pour leur facilité de vêlage. 2, record 1, French, - facilit%C3%A9%20de%20v%C3%AAlage

Another reason for lost data due to single-sire or single-animal contemporary groups is using central bull tests. Often breeders will send only one sire group to central test, resulting in a single-sire contemporary group. These data are expensive to collect, but they are often of little use in calculating EPDs. 3, record 2, English, - sire%20group

Somatic Cell Score appears to have an important impact on longevity in both bull groups as does milking speed. Calving Ease generally has no relationship with Herd Life proofs, except for a slight positive relationship in favour of bulls with daughters that give birth to their calves easily. 4, record 2, English, - sire%20group
