e work to a specific and robust genomics program based on a number of achievable and measurable initiatives geared at increasing fertility performance for Brahman operations working across Northern Australia.
01
Selected from over 500 male progeny
Our bulls and breeders have to perform on grass, adapting to heat, ticks, flies and Lantana, with minimal chemical treatments
02
Three to four generations of tropical breeding
In partnership with proven stud operators we now have a large number of bulls, which have been bred up for three to four generations under north Australian conditions, allowing us to put more selection pressure onlonger lines of cattle
03
Rigorous culling process
Animals are culled on, growth, temperament, yearling scrotal development, structure and rebreeding rates
04
Genomics R&D
By having our herds involved in genetics research, we believe we can help our clients, utilise genomic technologies to help predict the 'super fertility' animals in their herds at an early age, as well as offering advanced selected sires for this important productive trait
05
Adding hybrid vigour to Brahman breeds
Hybrid vigour leads to higher conception rates, higher percentage calf drops, heavier calves at weaning, earlier sexual maturity,higher milk production, increased longevity, and earlier conception in the breeding season
