Results from the University of Minnesota - July 2019. For further information : https://www.ansci.umn.edu/sites/ansci.umn.edu/files/procross_10-year_study_results_kg_new.pdf
+8% MORE FEED EFFICIENTThe crossbred cows MO x HO are more productive in comparison to the pure Holsteins.
+0.9% FAT & PROTEIN, lower DRY MATTER INTAKE -6.5% for the crobred cows, better BODY CONDITION SCORE +0.19 for the MOxHO.
Fat & Protein / DMI : 0.12 for Holstein and 0.13 for MOx HO, it means +8% Feed efficiency

MORE PRODUCTIVE THAN FLECKVIEHThe study made in Danemark compares 600 MO x HO cows to 2500 Fleckvieh x HO cows (Source: Torben Nørremark, VikingDanmark).
PRODUCTION
in 1st lact. + 106 kg for MO x HO and - 343 kg for Fleckv. x HO
