Website EU project RobustMilk

ChallengesThe full title of this European Project is:
Innovative and practical breeding tools for improved dairy products from more robust dairy cattle.

Objective

The objective of RobustMilk was to develop new practical technologies to allow breeders to re-focus their selection to include milk quality and dairy cow robustness and to evaluate the consequences of selection for these traits taking cognisance of various milk production systems. The RobustMilk project started on April 1st 2008 and finished by September 30 2012.

The special RobustMilk issue of the journal “Advances in Animal Biosciences” was published online by Cambridge University Press on July 30 2013. All publications of the RobustMilk project are available under the Publications section of the website www.robustmilk.eu
