Holstein Sire Listing August 2024

The new sire Listing is here! STgenetics® Canada is pleased to share its results following the release of the August Genetic Evaluations. CAPTAIN, JOHNBOY & Delta-LAMBDA all remain in the Top 10 on the LPI list, while adding a significant number of daughters to their indexes.

MAJOR makes his debut this sire summary with his first official proof and his balanced and different bloodline (Helix x Bandares) will add diversity to many breeding programs. BIGWIG, BRIGADE, LEYSER-PP, HOA-P are the newcomers to the genomic line-up. These different profiles provide a lot of components, and two of them offer the polled gene.

In the U.S., CAPTAIN made history being the #1 TPI Sire for the 6th consecutive proof run on the Top 100 International TPI® Bull List provided by Holstein Association USA, making him the first bull of the Genomic Era to achieve such an amazing feat! The generational impact that started with CHARL then went to CAPTAIN and now with their progeny is felt throughout the STgenetics® Canada offering, with over 34 bulls on the list over +100 kg for Fat and 9 over +140 kg Fat.

This is unprecedented added value for producers, who can now select according to the Eco$ index for both females and males since April. This innovative index, exclusive to STgenetics®, ensures that the next generation will produce more components while consuming less feed.
