2 How Can Turkey Double Milk Production by Increase the total number of purebred and crossbred animals. 2. Increase the rate of genetic improvement and incorporate modern technology. 3. Improve the management and nutrition levels on farm. 4. OR a combination of the above three factors. Let s look at the math.
3 Double the Milk Production Requires an approximate 6% increase per year from 2012 to 2023 to go from 17 million metric tons to 34 million metric tons of milk produced annually Milk 6% Annual Growth
4 Cattle Population Increase Modeling Increase the number of purebred cows at a rate of 4% per year. Increase the number of crossbred cows at a rate of 2% per year Decrease the number of domestic breed cattle gradually to a steady population of about 800k. Assume other genetic, management and nutrition levels remain steady. Result: Cow population increases 31% from 5.4 million head in 2012 to 7.1 million in Interestingly, the cow population in 1991 was 6.1 million head. From 1991 to 2023, the purebred and domestic cow populations flip flop positions. Cross bred cattle increase in numbers by about 1 million. This would require a very large increase in the number of imported purebred cattle or utilization of technology such as gender sorted semen.
5 Cattle Population Increase Modeling Purebred and domestic flip flop from 1991 to Crossbred cows increase by about 1 million 4,000,000 3,500,000 3,000,000 2,500,000 2,000,000 1,500,000 1,000, ,000 Cow population to sustain 6% annual production growth Purebred Crossbred Domestic
6 Cattle Population Increase Modeling Purebred and domestic flip flop from 1991 to Crossbred cows increase by about 1 million 8,000,000 7,000,000 6,000,000 5,000,000 4,000,000 3,000,000 2,000,000 1,000,000 Change in Cattle Population to sustain 6% annual production increase Purebred Crossbred Domestic Total Cows
7 Challenges 1. Increase the total number of purebred and crossbred animals may not be the most efficient and economical method of achieving milk production goals. 2. It will take time and investment to add cows to the national population and continue to make genetic progress. 3. More animals results in additional strain on feed supply, manure and waste management, water & air quality.
8 Increase Genetic Progress and use Technology Option 2: Model Assumptions Purebred and Crossbred cow population increases by 1% annually. Genetic improvement results in increase in production per cow beginning in Genetic improvement is accumulative and takes generations. Limited number of generations of improvement in 11 year period. Utilize good genetics on LARGE number of cows to maximize the rate of genetic improvement of the national herd. Utilize imported semen from high value genomic young sire semen from major overseas breeding programs. Incorporate Female sorted semen into breeding program to increase the number of replacement heifers internally. Imported heifers and sorted semen will produce more high quality replacement heifers and allow producers to aggressively cull lower production cows from existing herd. Total cow numbers might not increase much but the average genetic level of the remaining cows will be improved.
9 Genetic Improvement Requires lower cow population increase 4,000,000 Cow population to sustain 6% annual production increase with genetic improvement 3,500,000 3,000,000 2,500,000 2,000,000 1,500,000 1,000, ,000 - Purebred Crossbred Domestic
10 Option 3: Improve Management and Nutrition Nutrition can result in rapid improvement in production with cows that have high genetic potential. Higher genetic animals require better management, nutrition and good quality feed ingredients. Better nutrition for low genetic animals will not achieve the same increases in production. When fed more, they usually put on weight. Improving Management, Nutrition, Quality of feed ingredients, genetics improvement, modern technology and live heifer imports, Turkey can achieve the target of double the milk production in 11 years from the same or fewer animals.
11 Cow population with improved management, nutrition, genetics & technology Change in Cattle Population at -1% annually 7,000,000 6,000,000 5,000,000 4,000,000 3,000,000 2,000,000 1,000, Purebred Crossbred Domestic Total Cows
12 Cow population with improved management, nutrition, genetics & technology Change in Cattle Population at -1% annually 4,000,000 3,500,000 3,000,000 2,500,000 2,000,000 1,500,000 1,000, , Purebred Crossbred Domestic

16 Challenges to Double Meat Production by Lower genetic base to start with for traits that impact production efficiency. 2. Preference for Dual Purpose breeds that slow down genetic progress for either milk or meat production. 3. Limited availability of Angus females to be imported. 4. Health protocol will limit the ability to import good quality heifers or semen from the largest and most efficient breeds in the USA. 5. Improve the management and nutrition levels on farm and incorporate modern technology. 6. Turkey will most likely need to incorporate all of the above to achieve the target. 7. It will be more difficult to achieve beef target compared to milk target due to the different starting point and the health protocol for imported beef genetics from the USA.
17 How Can Turkey Double Meat Production by Place more emphasis on specialized breeds for beef. Genetic progress for meat production in dual purpose cattle is slower. 2. Incorporate more genetics into the national herd that will result in increased efficiency and total kilograms of meat produced. 3. Change the breed mix with more purebred and crossbred animals. 4. Increase the rate of genetic improvement per animal and incorporate modern technology. 5. Improve the management and nutrition levels on farm. 6. OR a combination of the above three factors. The Math is similar to the dairy models
18 Doubling Production for Export; Is this the correct goal? Develop a solid domestic price model so producers are profitable. Support free market policies and eliminate subsidies. The goal of doubling milk or meat production with the desire to export this product to neighboring countries requires that the end product is price competitive. If not, it will hit the domestic market and impact pricing.
19 Market Economics 1. The modeling we just covered addresses the HOW. 2. But is doubling production the right objective?

21 Efficient conversion of feed into milk or meat The ultimate objective in the bovine business is efficiently converting feed (grass or concentrates) into milk or meat.
