Diamond Sires are ‘Rock Solid’ bulls<br />
with over 1,000 milking daughters.<br />
Therefore recognising sires with<br />
outstanding Second Crop success and<br />
ensuring genetic accuracy.<br />
Rock Solid Genetics highlights sires<br />
with over 100 daughters in 60 herds.<br />
Providing stable Type and Production<br />
proofs over time. Use Rock Solid<br />
Genetics to identify the most reliable<br />
sires from <strong>Genus</strong> ABS.<br />
Identifies sires within the <strong>Genus</strong><br />
ABS stud with the easiest Calving<br />
Ease ratings, based on hundreds of<br />
observations. Calving Ease sires enable<br />
cows to get off to the best possible start<br />
after calving.<br />
Welcome to our Grassland Directory for Winter 2012...<br />
The <strong>Genus</strong> ABS Grassland brochure is tailored<br />
to suit the needs of those farmers looking to<br />
maximize milk from forage.<br />
The sire selection is aimed towards<br />
moderate sized cows which carry condition.<br />
Their genetics are focused on increasing<br />
components and fertility.<br />
Our sire selection is a varied and exciting<br />
range representing the Holstein, Friesian,<br />
Viking Red, Montbeliarde and Jersey breeds.<br />
These sires are sourced from our global stud<br />
which has testing programmes all over the<br />
world, including grassland hotspots such as<br />
Ireland and New Zealand.<br />
This brochure contains information on both<br />
<strong>UK</strong> (PLI) and Irish (EBI) indexes. This gives<br />
you, the farmer, more information about the<br />
product you are purchasing and the option<br />
to really drill down into a bulls proof. More<br />
information on the two indices and the<br />
information that they contain can be found<br />
below.<br />
Alongside our exciting range of grassland<br />
sires we have a first class grassland<br />
consultancy programme to compliment our<br />
product offering. For more information on our<br />
grassland consultancy please either contact<br />
your local rep or our customer service team<br />

Based on over one million services a<br />
year, <strong>Genus</strong> ABS are unique in being<br />
able to identify fertility ratings of our<br />
stud. The bulls with the highest Semen<br />
Fertility are identified with this symbol.<br />
Identifies those bulls that score well<br />
on the traits that are desirable on a<br />
grassland system, locomotion, fertility<br />
and body condition score etc.<br />
Identifies those sires who’s daughters<br />
show improved daughter fertility. Use<br />
these sires to maximise the reproductive<br />
potential of your herd.<br />
Where high quality milk is a priority.<br />
High component sires have been<br />
marked with the Cheese Maker symbol.<br />

EBI<br />
Designed for the Irish farmer whose milk contracts are<br />
aimed at higher weights of fat and protein. Fertility is<br />
given a high weighting.<br />
Conformation is based on reducing liveweight, while<br />
still delivering a saleable cull cow.<br />
Production is based on high components and lower<br />
volumes, health includes cell counts.<br />
PLI<br />
Designed for the <strong>UK</strong> farmer to deliver profitable cows<br />
in our systems.<br />
While production is still driven by high components,<br />
there is more benefit for higher volumes of solids<br />
We also have a selection of New Zealand<br />
Jerseys available on request.<br />

Lifespan<br />
A direct measure of how<br />
long cows are lasting in<br />
the herd. Each decimal<br />
point reflects an extra<br />
month of herd life.<br />
Linear Assessment<br />
Linear measures the difference in<br />
biological extremes in different traits,<br />
without saying which is the most<br />
desirable score. The mid point (0)<br />
represents the breed average for the<br />
population.<br />
Maintenance Sub Index<br />
Promotes a lighter cow<br />
requiring less maintenance.<br />
Health Sub Index<br />
Selects for low SCC and<br />
