New 100 tonnes lifetime producer Congratulations to Carol Pledge of Sunnydawn Jerseys. Carol will be known to many of you since she has been a regular attendee at the European Jersey Forum. We also visited her farm in 2009. Her 11th calver Sunnydawn Triumph Blackcurrant VG86 has now given over 100T lifetime as the first English-bred Jersey in a solely Jersey herd. Blackcurrant has so far given a lifetime yield of over 102 tonnes and is still milking in her 11th lactation having calved on 15 June 2014. She has already bred one EX, one VG and two GP daughters, and has a best 305 day record of 8505kg at 5.02% fat and 3.49% protein in her 5th lactation. Born in February 2000, this 15 year old cow is a great advertisement of longevity in our breed! Well done Blackcurrant and Carol.
