Fertile Friesians<br />
from <strong>Genus</strong> ABS...<br />
Welcome to our Friesians Directory for<br />
2012-13<br />
There has been a growing increase in the use<br />
of the Friesian breed in recent years and many<br />
Holstein breeders are now crossing their cows to<br />
a Friesian sire.<br />
<strong>Genus</strong> ABS has a wide choice of top quality<br />
proven Friesian sires and also an impressive<br />
selection of well bred young sires. We are<br />
pleased to present you with the full details of our<br />
current stud in our 2012-13 Friesian directory –<br />
which includes top bulls for production, type and<br />
also the health and management traits.<br />
There is no doubt that the Friesian provides a<br />
profitable choice for many farmers!<br />

What are the key features of the Friesian<br />
• Very good daughter fertility<br />
• Low somatic cell count<br />
• Easy calvings<br />
• Long lasting cows<br />
• Good legs and feet, well suited for grazing<br />
• High bull calf value<br />
• High fat and protein percentages<br />
• A smaller more robust cow<br />
• Heterosis from cross breeding<br />
Introducing Fertile Friesians...<br />
the world’s most fertile bulls from the<br />
world’s most fertile breed<br />
Deagate Quentin daughter<br />
There has been a gradual decline in<br />
the fertility of dairy cows in the <strong>UK</strong><br />
over the past few years and the<br />
Friesian breed is a great choice for<br />
farmers wanting to improve fertility<br />
in their herds.<br />
The Friesian breed has a 9 point<br />
advantage in genetic base for Fertility<br />
Index when compared to the Holstein<br />
breed.<br />
This means an average of 5 days<br />
reduced calving interval due to<br />
genetics alone (see graph 1).<br />
When combined with the benefits of<br />
heterosis, the Friesian bred<br />
can offer a reduction of 12 days calving interval.<br />
This reduction in calving interval is worth<br />
approx £50/cow/year!<br />
Fertile Friesians top the fertility rankings<br />
What’s more, <strong>Genus</strong> ABS has some of the most<br />
fertile sires in the breed. Deangate Quentin is<br />
the breed’s top Fertility Index sire at +11.1,<br />
equivalent to +20.1 on the Holstein base –<br />
probably the World’s best fertility sire available<br />
today from any breed!<br />
