All West Select Sires invites dairy producers to join them on a Select Sires Daughter Tour, May 6-9, 2013. Over 100 SMS Evaluators from around the globe will be meeting in Visalia during that time and touring several dairies over the three-day period. The tour is open to producers who would like the opportunity to view daughters of proven bulls, as well as newly proven genomic sires and potential new release bulls of both Holstein and Jersey breeds. Joining the driving tour will not only allow you to see these daughters, but interact with the Select Sires staff as well.
While reservations are not mandatory, they are appreciated and help with lunch planning. Following is the schedule for the event, including GPS addresses:
