ABS Global graduates 10 Holstein sires

ABS-AustraliaABS Global has graduated 10 sires into its proven sire lineup that provide a wide array of favorable traits for dairy producers across the globe.

“High on our proven list is 29HO17573 SEAGULL-BAY SILVER-ET,” says Mitch Amundson, Global Dairy Brand Manager. “SILVER truly is an example of how genomics work. He was a standout with his initial genomic prediction and he has proven true today. Silver delivers on our global expectations and is a customer satisfaction bull.”

April 2017 graduate 29HO17553 JOSUPER (http://bit.ly/2o799dL) now leads the ABS proven list and had an impressive day. This 5-star semen fertility and 4-star TransitionRight® sire is the #2 NM$ and #3 TPI® sire in the industry and continues to shine with +3,129 milk and +91 protein lbs.

ABS Global is committed to providing the best genetics for each producer’s individual herd. The new graduate line-up features Holstein sires high in milk production, conformation and calving ease while also improving female fertility.

29HO18589 TRIPLECROWN PONTIFF-ET (http://bit.ly/2vNrNvT) adds to our already powerful Icon Sire listing at 2845 TPI® and 925 NM$. He is also a 5-star TransitionRight® sire.

“An elite Jett son, Pontiff is sure to attract attention and should be considered an all around sire for production, health and fitness,” Amundson continues.

At ABS we recognize the dairymen’s needs. It is our mission to produce a superior sire lineup that tailors to the management style and desires of every herd. We are pleased to announce our newest proven sires that will offer dairymen a variety of traits to help all operations achieve their goals.
