dc.description.abstract | We developed an economic model comparing the profitability of Kenyan peri-urban dairy smallholder
production systems for different dairy breeds: purebred Friesians, F1 cows produced by AI, and by
Sexed (female) in vitro fertilised, F1 Embryo Transplant (SIFET). Annual profit per cow (averaged
over the cow’s lifetime) was AUD73 for naturally bred Friesians, AUD120 for F1 cows produced by
artificial insemination, and AUD205 for F1 cows produced by sexed in vitro fertilised embryo
