A Holstein breeding heifer, considered the most expensive in Russia, has been sold for 500,000 rubles at an auction in Chuvashia. The auction, which also featured breeding bulls and Hereford bulls, was held by the Association of Holstein Cattle Producers and saw the heifer's starting price of 350,000 rubles surpassed. The heifer, born in May of the previous year, was purchased by the local agricultural holding Chebomilk LLC to diversify the genealogy of donors. The cow's mother produced 11.2 tons of milk with a fat content of 3.72 percent, and the father, Last Dance, was ranked in the top 2 percent of world bulls on the NM Lifetime Profit Index.
