Hello, I will be (hopefully) finishing this article soon, so I would really appreciate your help one more time. I highlighted the terms which I'm not sure about, but any correction will be appreciated. Thanks again!!!!
Biologic and economic efficiency in dairy cattle requires both a high milk yield and an adequate reproductive performance. Productive and reproductive traits in cattle usually have an adverse genetic correlation, with an improvement in milk yield generally implying a drawback in fertility.
In grazing-based systems this incompatibility becomes extreme. In NZ, dairy production systems are headed towards an increased intensification level. However, at least 50% of dairy systems still are grazing-based so nutritional environment is not completely controlled in these systems.
The results of this study show that dairy cows have a poor reproductive performance, particularly when compared with the 82-day interval between calving and conception optimal value to obtain one calving per year.

Biologic and economic efficiency in dairy cattle farming requires both a high milk yield and an adequate reproductive performance. Productive and reproductive traits in cattle usually have an adverse inverse genetic correlation, with an improvement in milk yield generally implying a drawback reduction in fertility. In grazing-based systems this incompatibility relationship becomes extreme.

Hi teechr!! Thank you very much!!! Let me try again with that last sentence:
The results of this study show that dairy cows have a poor reproductive performance. This is particularly notorious when the ICC is compared with the 82-days optimal value to obtain one calving per year.
Or:
The results of this study show that dairy cows have a poor reproductive performance. Thi
