Caledonian livestock market. 2 Genus ABS Beef Calving Survey Our selection programme allows us to identify top quality sires for use on dairy cows... Genus ABS can identify young beef bulls which have the potential to transmit the traits we are looking for in a beef sire, by using EBV data. However, EBV data only relates to data collected on beef cows and is often based on small data sets. To identify elite beef sires for use on dairy cows, we have gathered significant data sets on beef sires performance on dairy cows through the Genus ABS Beef Calving Survey to provide sires with a 'proven' status. Hundreds of beef sires have been tested through our survey for the past 40 years, with around 90% being rejected for failing to make the grade. How we test our beef sires on dairy cows: Beef sires are sourced Semen is collected Calving observations Sires are ‘proven’ at and entered into our and used across and information are 120 calvings in 60 herds Beef Calving Survey 2,000 UK farms collected at birth ‘Rock Solid Genetics’ 50,000 progeny+ 'Sapphire Sire' Bulls are tested for Calving Ease 100,000 progeny+ Calf Quality It allows us to test beef 'Diamond Sire' Gestation Length bulls from numerous Calf Coat Colour breeds on dairy cows Calf Survivability The table below shows proven sires calving survey results on dairy cows..
