ADGA members, with the approval of their local associations, can now participate in DHIR using Owner Sampler Plan '40' beginning in 2004.
* All DHI management information * Herd/Individual Records * STAR (ST) Volume eligibility* * Affordability * Flexibility * Availability
As with all plans recognized for use in ADGA, there are requirements for acceptance of records into the STAR Volume. These are: * Herd verification test between 60 and 150 days in milk * Minimum data collection rating of '75' * Owner responsibility to send in completed lactation record
All requirements of the ADGA DHIR program will apply to the Owner Sampler Test Plan, including those set for verification testing. *The *M will be equivalent to those earned in a One-Day Milking Competition but with increased opportunity to earn Star recognition based on the yield minimums set forward in the ADGA guidebook. As part of the STAR (ST) volume, Owner Sampler records are not eligible for Breed Leader (Top Ten) recognition nor will appear on Performance Pedigrees, features that are part of the ADVANCED REGISTRY (AR) Volume. Records will be included in the Performance Volumes. For members interested in more information, look for additional ADGA provided information soon!
