“NxGEN was designed by dairy producers, for dairy producers. It is intended for dairies that want to drive genetic performance,” said Jordan Siemers, dairy sire analyst. “The current lineup includes sires that meet the needs of nearly every dairy producer, no matter the management environment or selection criteria.”
New addition WESTON puts a modern spin on the Ralma Juror Faith cow family. He is a 7HO14859 MAXIMUS son with a profitable balance of GTPI (+2960), NM$ (+997), CM$ (+1,007) and Dairy Wellness Profit Dollars® (+1,032 DWP$®). He also ranks high on Select Sires’ new Herd Health Profit DollarsTM index at +1,048 HHP$TM.
For a 7HO12788 FRAZZLED-free pedigree, herds can use IMPACT – an elite fitness trait sire. His extremely high Livability value (+3.4 LIV), exceptional daughter fertility and Mastitis ResistantPRO™ qualification combine to create longer-living, trouble-free cows. IMPACT also ranks well for GTPI (+2950) and HHP$ (+1,026).
MOZZARELLA brings a unique sire stack to the lineup: Heroic x (GP-84-VG-MS) Marius x (GP-81) Fortune x (VG-86) 7HO13195 PROFIT. He transmits +0.25 percent Fat, +0.10 percent Protein and +165 Combined Fat and Protein (CFP) to sire daughters with high component yields.
Elite Polled genetics add great value to today’s dairy industry. PLAYOFF-P is a heterozygous Polled sire that offers tremendous NM$ (+926) and CM$ (+931) values with a modern sire stack. He is a MAXIMUS son from a FRAZZLED dam and a Very Good (85-VG-MS) 7HO12165 MONTROSS grandam.
ELON is a 7HO14674 SPARTACUS son from a 7HO14194 MOOLA dam and a 7HO12811 LOPEZ grandam. With a booming +3046 GTPI, ELON stands to be one of the industry’s most elite Udder Composite sires (+2.18 UDC) with such an extreme GTPI value.
