Health & Safety

Health and Safety has become an important issue on Irish dairy farms. For our A.I. technician’s safety and to achieve the best conception rates, proper handling and restraining facilities must be in place using A.I.Pedigree Status

There are a number of genomic sires in our 2018 Dairy Directory that we have classified as SRM. The use of these bulls in a pedigree herd will affect the pedigree status of subsequent progeny. Please contact us in Dovea if you wish to discuss further.

INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTIONWelcome to the 2018 Dovea Genetics Dairy Directory. We are delighted to have compiled a large and detailed directory of bulls which will hopefully suit your farming system. The directory contains a wide and diverse range of dairy sires from our high EBI genomic sires, high EBI daughter proven sires, pure Friesian sires, daughter proven Holstein sires, high type Holstein sires and a wide range of crossbreeding breeds and sires.

The success of our ongoing genomics programme is very evident in this directory with: 1. Recent graduates from our high EBI genomic

programme to our daughter proven section shows our genomics programme is working and allows Dovea to offer you high EBI daughter proven bulls for those who are looking for daughter proven bulls.

2. The continued selection of young high EBI bulls with

EBI figures to €336. The 2018 crop of bulls complement our existing panel of bulls and shows the strength in depth that Dovea Genetics now has in terms of high EBI sires. We continue to source and identify young high EBI bulls for our genomics programme. We select these bulls on milk solids, fertility and health traits which will leave long lasting healthy productive profitable cows for you to milk. If you have a pregnancy or bull calf of interest please contact Tim Fitzmaurice, Dairy Programme Manager with the relevant details. We have paid and will continue to pay the top prices of any AI centre in Ireland to obtain the highest EBI bull calves.

The Friesian section in our directory is one of our strongest Friesian sections ever. We have a wide range of bulls from genomic to daughter proven.

We have added a number of outcross pedigrees in our Friesian section which have excellent production figures, fat & protein, excellent fertility and from good cow families. The large selection of pure Friesians make it Ireland’s most comprehensive and best selection of pure Friesian bulls available.

There has been numerous changes in the EBI since our last publication. In the December 2017 proof run from ICBF the EBI’s have changed primarily due to test day model, updating the training population and updating economic values with the EBI. The full details of the changes are available on www.icbf.com. The advice from ICBF is to use a large pack of bulls within your herd. Please speak to one of our area representatives or A.I. technicians if you need further information on the packs available from Dovea Genetics.

You might be wondering why we have not included all of our beef bulls suitable for the dairy herd in this directory. We have decided to publish a separate Dairy Beef Directory in Spring 2018 because of the growing selection of bulls we have available for this market and the growing demand for this semen. Dovea Genetics has invested heavily in beef bulls for this market and are delighted to have an improving selection of short gestation easy calving bulls in the directory which tick these boxes for the dairy farmer. The growing dairy herd in Ireland will plateau in time and result in more beef semen used on the dairy herd. We will continue to purchase beef bulls for this market and would be delighted to hear your feedback on our selection of beef bulls for this market and any improvements we can make.

Good luck with your breeding in 2018 from all in Dovea Genetics.

Dr. Ger RyanGeneral Manager

SYNCHRONISATION

PROGRAMME

SYNCHRONISATION PROGRAMME FOR USE IN DAIRY HERDSOestrus synchronisation programmes allow a number of advantages in any AI based breeding programme: -1. Cows and heifers are in heat during a predictable period following treatment allowing for fixed time

AI (FTAI)2. The time required for heat detection is reduced which in turn decreases the cost of labour associated

with the breeding season.3. Cows and heifers can conceive earlier in the breeding season.4. Heifers born to earlier conceptions will consequently be older and heavier when being bred

themselves.Synchronisation is no substitute for poor management and care is needed to ensure the success of any oestrus synchronisation programme:1. Ensure adequate time has elapsed between calving and any synchronisation protocol (a minimum of

40 days after calving is normally suggested).2. Cows should be in average or above average body condition at time of treatment. Good transitional

cow management is vital to achieve this.3. Cows should have experienced minimal calving difficulty and show no clinical signs of endometritis or

metritis. Having cows examined by your vet prior to any synchronisation programme is advised.4. Replacement heifers should have developed to a pre-breeding target weight of at least 65% of

projected mature body weight.5. Ensure all vaccination programmes are completed at least 3 weeks prior to the synchronisation

programme.
