Title

The 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 is 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 leaflet of the RobustMilk project is available (Leaflet).
