Lineback dairy cattle make great 4-H and FFA projects. *Lineback's are doctile and very adaptable. They are also good grazers' and are "dark hooved" so they do very well in a freestall operations or in a tiestall. Linebacks milk very well with good components. They have very good longevity and good fertility, they also are very good cows when crossing a Lineback on other dairy breeds if you are into crossbreeding.
Coincidently you can register in the ALCR the resulting offspring as Linebacks, as long as your calves have a white line down there back and the sire is a registered bull. Lineback bulls make great calving ease sires too.
