Is this an ad being taken out somewhere? Did you make this, Mom? Dad, can you explain what all the different numbers mean? The percent must be classification, but other than that I'm pretty clueless.
4-11 calved at 4 yrs 11 mos. 297 days in lactation 21,960 lbs. milk for lactation 4.5% 4.5% butterfat 984 lbs. butterfat for lactation 3.6% percent protein 790 lbs. protein for lact. 99dcr a measure of the reliablity of the data JPI 177 jersey performance index-a little like the OPOO, the best baseball statistic ever invented
Mom didn't make the ad. It was created by a person at the Journal where it will appear next month.
Well Mom, when a cow comes up to bat with no other cows on base, she has an opportunity to advance 4 total bases. If she strikes out, that's 0/4, a single is 1/4, blah blah a home run is 4/4. Now if she comes up a cow on 1st, she has an opportunity to advance cows 7 total bases (4 for herself, 3 for the cow on 1st). Then a homerun is 7/7, a strikeout is 0/7, a single that advances the 1st cow to 2nd base is 2/7, etc.. Get the idea?

What is the scale on the Jersey performance index? We have an overall herd JPI, right? (Duh, of course we do, since we rank 19th for it.) What is it?

Basically, Dad's cows know how to play ball.
