Aurora! What a cow!

Stornaway Romo Aurora is 570th on the list of Registered Jersey Cows sorted by Jersey Performance Index. That puts her in the top 1/2 % of the breed, and she is the highest cow I've ever had. Also on the top 1.5% list are Chloe, Cherry, Dot and Pierogi. Movin' up.

As a herd, we remain 15th in the nation for JPI. 2nd in the state. This is excellent because we have done no culling for production in several years. When we hit 75 cows, and if we decide to stabilize there for a while, we should slide back up, as it will allow us to cull some deadwood. Now there's a poorly crafted sentence.
