Welcome to the 2014/ 15 Grassland Directory

1

The Genus ABS Grassland Directory is tailored to suit the needs of those farmers who are looking to maximize their milk from grass.

The sires we’ve selected are aimed towards moderate sized cows which carry condition. Their genetics are focused on increasing components and fertility and all sires are selected as grazing kings and cheese makers, so you can rest assured that any sire chosen from this directory would be perfectly matched to a grazing system.

This directory features an exciting line up of sires from a variety of breeds, including Holsteins, Friesians, Jerseys and Swedish Red. These sires have been sourced from our global stud, which has testing programmes all over the world, including grassland hotspots such as Ireland and New Zealand. You will also find beef sires on page 28, which have been specially selected for a grassland herd.

Containing data and information from both UK (SCI) and Irish (EBI) indexes, the directory gives a comprehensive look at each sire, so you can really get a good insight into a bulls proof before purchasing the product of your choice. You will find more information on the two indices, SCI & EBI below.

Alongside our exciting range of sires, we have a first class grassland consultancy programme to compliment our product offering, and not forgetting our technicianservice team who are experts in inseminating block calving herds.

If you would like more information on our grassland sires, consultancy or technician

service, either contact your local Genus ABS representative or call our customer service team

on 0870 162 200.

£SCI, what is it?...

In August this year, a new economic breeding tool was introduced as part of the DairyCo Breeding+programme. The Spring Calving Index (£SCI) is an across-breed genetic ranking index developed in consultation with industry partners specifically forspring block calving herds and expressed as a financial value.

• The £SCI value represents the additional profit a high £SCI bull is expected to return from each of its milking daughters over her lifetime compared to an average bull of £0 SCI. These are specifically calculated for UK markets and farming conditions.

• The £SCI will ensure important genetic areas are maintained or improved eg fertility (calving interval and non-return rate), SCC and milk solids.

• Increased emphasis on the maintenance cost by reducing cow live weight will give the daughters of high £SCI bulls improved efficiency suited to the UK spring calving market.

EBI is a single figure profit index, designed for the Irish farmer whose milk contracts are aimed at higher weights of fat and protein.

Fertility is given a high weighting, conformation is based on reducing liveweight, while still delivering a saleable cull cow. Production is based on high components and lower volumes, health includes cell counts.
