    Lads what effect do ye think all the people leaving sucklers for dairy will have on those who remain in sucklers?
    Also if sexed semen becomes more successful in future will the dairy men use continental bulls when they've their quota of replacements put into cows, further edging out the suckler man?

    And you can be sure it's some of the best suckler lads that are moving to dairy. Definitely big changes ahead. But change isn't always a bad thing. It's inevitable though so no point trying to ignore it.

    I would double check:rolleyes: as a kid I ran in one day to tell my dad that the cow was just after having a bull calf. came out after a half hour with my dad to discover if fact the cow had a heifer - to a kid aged around 8 it probably didnt register but "always have a grope to be sure" I was told

    Theyre nothing but trouble, it will be interesting to see how they will fair out when inspected and who'll be responsible if they don't pass. :confused:
