1 Apr '20 General

Granddaughters of Drouner AJDH Aiko 1267 P-Red EX-90 (s. Kanu P) had a great classification

The Aiko family is one of the most successful cow families at Drouner Holsteins. From the 22 cows which were classified, Beemer daughter Drouner Aiko 1512 VG-88 scored the highest of all first calvers. She's a granddaughter of the great brood cow AJDH Aiko RDC VG-87 (s. Freddie). The result of this classification round was fantastic again with an average score of VG-85!

One cow family which must be mentioned is the Drouner Mientje family. Six members had an average classification score of VG-85. One of these great Mientjes is Drouner Mientje 1018 VG-88 (s. herd bul). She's a very impressive cow and in 8th lactation now. Her average production per lactation is 11.584kg M with 3.98% F & 3.50% P. Also Drouner Mientje 1519 VG-87 made an stunning impression. Mientje 1519 was classified with VG-87 and is sired by Drouner Rednex. This sire is the full brother of the Reserve Intermediate Champion R&W of the HHH-Show 2019: Drouner Aiko 1349 EX-90 (Effort x VG-87 Freddie).

Besides Drouner Aiko 1512 VG-88 there were some other Drouner Aikos in this classification round: Drouner Aiko 1562 VG-86 (s. Salvatore RC) and Drouner K&L Aiko 1563, a VG-85 Silky Red daughter. These two are both granddaughters of AJDH Aiko 1267 P-Red EX-90 (s. Kanu P), the Reserve Intermediate Champion R&W & HM Grand Champion HHH-Show in 2017. The Aiko family is a very consistent and fancy cow family with international interest. 

The Albring family works closely together 3STAR Genetics through the EmbryoProgram and joint purchases. Drouner K&L Aiko 1563 VG-85 was one of the four co-owned first calvers which is classified. More about those results in this article.
