Why combine these three dairy breeds? The combination of VikingHolstein, VikingRed and Coopex Montbéliarde has proven to be the most profitable cross . The three breeds are unrelated, high-producing and well-suited for intensive production farms. VikingHolstein, VikingRed and Montbéliarde by Coopex combine and compensate for their strong and weak points. When switching from a purebred dairy herd to ProCROSS, you don’t need to worry about any drop in milk solids production. With the right combination of breeds , you can achieve significant improvements in lifetime produc - tion and, at the same time, reduce the costs and amount of work per cow .
