- A review of the causes of poor fertility in high milk producing dairy cows (2010, unknown): “The authors thank the many members of the Reproductive Biology Research Cluster (Ireland) for helpful comments and also to Dawn Cole for help preparing the illustrations.”
- Factors Affecting Farmers’ Adoption of Agricultural Innovations: A Panel Data Analysis of the Use of Artificial Insemination among Dairy Farmers in Ireland (2012, background): “While reproductive efficiency is important in all systems it is considered to have a higher importance in seasonal calving systems found commonly in countries such as Ireland, New Zealand and Australia (Dillon et al., 2006; Walsh et al., 2011).”
- Effects of stocking rate, supplementation, genotype and their interactions on grazing dairy systems: a review (2010, background): “Results of experiments reviewed by Dillon et al. (2006) indicate that the extra loss in BCS in NA high genetic merit cows is not compensated for even when these animals are supplemented with higher levels of concentrate in early lactation, because extra energy is partitioned towards milk synthesis.”
- A meta-analysis of the impact of stocking rate on the productivity of pasture-based milk production systems (2010, background): “This increase in productivity has been reported previously and is a consequence of increased emphasis of selection for milk production, including fat and protein yield, as milk yield has been the main objective criterion for selection in most temperate countries (Miglior et al., 2005; Dillon et al.,”
