Dairy cows
Common to the three Danish dairy breeds, SDM, RDM, and Jersey, is their high yields and good udder quality.
General health is of the highest priority in Denmark. Likewise, they all have both strong legs and good hoof health.
High yield, high fertility, and good calf traits play a significant role in Danish milk production.

Also known for producing animals with longevity, high fertility, easy calving, and high milk production with high fat and protein content.
RDM is also known for its strong resistance to mastitis and its ability to adapt to other climate zones, including high- and low-temperature conditions.
SDM (Holstein)
Holstein is the most widespread breed in Denmark and is probably among the best in the world. Strong legs and large, quality udders. They are known for being healthy and strong cows, with high fertility and strong calves.
