Choosing dairy bulls just got easier

Tuesday, 19 July 2022

Finding the most suitable dairy sire for your herd is quicker and easier using our updated online bull search.

Selecting and filtering bulls to suit your breeding targets is now more intuitive, the website has better mobile accessibility and improvements have been made to the navigation so you can more easily access key genetics information and guidance. A number of bugs and have been resolved to make it easier for you to scan and scroll though different options.

Identifying the strengths and weaknesses of your herd is also simpler thanks to a refreshed herd genetic report, allowing you to view summaries of your youngstock, milking herd, and check inbreeding.

You’re still able to view, refine and sort bull lists by the breeding index most suited to their system – all year round, spring or autumn calving. And you can select bulls by milk production, and percentage or kilograms of fat and protein as a range of management and health traits.

Lists are available for all the main breeds and are split into proven and genomic bulls, both UK and international, alongside genomic and non-genomic heifers and cows.

All lists will be updated following the next bull proof run on Tuesday 9 August.
