3Close but no Cigar  May 30, 2007
This book has great information about Dairy Farming. It gives you a good overview of all the factors that a dairy producer would face. However what was very disappointing was the sheer lack of any color pictures. I believe that any text book published in this day and age should have color images rather than black and white ones. Many of the photographs in this book were faded and did not provide a high degree of detail. For a book costing over $100, this was disappointing.

5Excellent dairy handbook  Mar 30, 2000
Dairy Cattle Science is a excellent handbook reviewing most aspects concerning dairy farming and consulting. There are very good chapters on nutrition, management and reproduction (breeding) for instance. Ofcourse this book is mainly for US situations but very useful for other parts of the World.
