24 | CROSSING RANGE
The Crossing range is intended for breeders interested in crossbreeding. It is the answer to a variety of needs: - For dairy: for breeders who are looking for animals with early muscularity and growth, from the fi rst weeks of life of the calf. Ideal for both dairy and beef herds, with slaughter before 12 months of age. - Heavy growth: for breeders who are looking for growth, weight and carcass yield. Ideal for dairy and beef farms which fatten animals with slaughter at more than 12 months. - Maternal Cross: For breeders who want to improve the overall performances of their herd by producing crossbred females. Ideal for 1st generation and absorption crossing.
