The following are some of the records I have collected over the years of the Jersey breed in NZ. They are unofficial and please email me if you have further information and I can update these pages.
NEW ZEALAND herd averages over 272kgs (600lb) fat (also world herds over 454kgs (1000lb) fat averages)
Also a list of herds in New Zealand that have averaged over 10,000 lb milk average (4405 litre milk)
NEW ZEALAND LIFETIME PRODUCERS over 4000 kgs fat
Cows producing over 1000lb (454kg) fat in New Zealand
Top herd each season. See down on this page.
TOP HERD (FAT) in NEW ZEALAND each season
This is the highest average I am aware of in each season regardless
of official awards won
1960's (TOP means top FAT average for each decade)
