About Nijkamp Rodney

If you are looking for amazing conformation, then look no further than Nijkamp Rodney (Juandy x Acme x Fidelity)! This well-developed bull excels at improving udders (the next generation of bulls are Talent and Tulip who also pass on super udders). In terms of milk production, the protein percentage is extremely impressive. 

The traits above not only typify the specific qualities of Rodney’s maternal line (the Ria line), but also those of his sire Juandy. As well as correct udders and high protein percentages, Andy son Juandy also offers considerable development and plenty of milk. In addition, his daughters show wonderful dairy type and have good legs - features which have already resulted in several championship cows. 

And on the subject of champions, we mustn't forget to mention Tulip daughter Ria 27.  This 92-point registered cow (Rodney's great-great grand dam) took part in the NRM three times and also produced 70,000 kg of milk. Through her Talent daughter Ria 66 (VG 86, the great grand dam of Rodney and good for lifetime production of 60,000 kg) we arrive at Ria 84. Rodney's grand dam combines great production with sky high components and fabulous, all-round conformation. Her daughter Ria 88, Rodney's dam, is as equally impressive as her dam. She ranks 88 points for general conformation and produces even higher protein percentages than her dam Ria 84.
