180 | Transforming Dairy Farming with Cutting-Edge Genetics at McCarty Family Farms | Dairy Genetics

One thing I love about the dairy industry is that we are always looking for ways to improve on what we are already doing… And the McCartys are no different. In this episode of the Uplevel Dairy Podcast, we are heading back to McCarty Family Farms to explore the significant role of genetic advancements in their dairy operations. Ken McCarty shares insights on how the partnership with Zoetis and the use of genetic evaluations from Zoetis Clarifide Plus have helped the farm enhance productivity, sustainability, and genetic progress.
