A46-Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 22, 2000 Jointly Sample Jersey Sires SHAWANO, Wis. With the popularity the Jersey breed is experiencing world-wide, Cenex Cooperative and Live stock Improvement Corporation (LIC) of New Zealand have in troduced a joint program for sampling Jersey sires. Cows will be selected for flushing in the U.S. based on pedigree, conformation, Net Merit, and converted New Zea land breeding values. New Zea land cows will be selected by using the same criteria, focusing on cows with high breeding values for milk, fat, and protein production and functional type. Mating sires used for the flushes will be a combination of U.S. and New Zealand bulls being used by both organizations as sires of sons. Bulls resulting from the em bryos purchased will enter the joint sampling program. The bulls will be available to herds enrolled in the Genex sampling program and will be sampled si multaneously in the U.S. and New Zealand. Of the 24 Jersey sires sampled annually by Genex, five will come from the joint program with LIC. The program will offer pro ducers the opportunity to use unique pedigree combinations in their breeding program, includ ing bloodlines new to both coun tries. It will also help identify bloodlines and cow families that will perform well in traditional management programs as well as in a grazing system. New Zealand, with the largest Jersey population in the world, offers LIC the opportunity to sample 100 Jersey sires annu ally. Their Breeding Worth (BW) index is relatively similar to Net Merit in the U.S., reflect ing an animal’s overall profita bility by placing economic values on production and longevity. Two young sires are available for sampling through'this new joint program of Genex and LIC.
