We believe in driving the future of efficiency through the use of strategic dairy & beef genetic solutions, empowering farmers to develop more sustainable breeding programs while increasing the profitability of their operations.
The future of efficiency will be achieved through the use of strategic dairy & beef genetic solutions. Breeding programs that increase both the profitability and sustainability
of our farmers dairy operations.
Proven to increase production and profit due to superior hybrid vigor, the Three Way Cross gives you the ultimate solution to unlocking your crossbred herds’ efficiency.
– 86% Stabilized Heterosis
– Superior Health & Fertility
– Reduced Antibiotic Usage
– Increased Longevity
– Reduce Bobby Calves
Creating Dairy Beef Solutions to empower both the dairy and beef industry to produce a high-quality beef product and remove/reduce bobby calves simultaneously is critical to creating the future of sustainable farming practices.With this goal in mind we have developed a series of Dairy Beef Solutions;
– Short Gestation Belgian Blue – KiwiBlue™
– Homozygous Black, Black Hereford
– Southern Stations Red Wagyu
– More
With the introduction of genomics, the rate of genetic gain in dairy herds globally accelerated. New Zealand dairy farmers stand to gain more value than ever before from using overseas genetics in their herds. Accurately predicting the performance of overseas sires has been a core focus for the genetics team here at Samen NZ. Being able to predict how animals perform in New Zealand herds, required that we developed a rigorous evaluation system now represented by the gNZI©.
" I looked at other industries like the pig and poultry industries and noticed a lot of them used crossbreeding a lot in their programmes. The benefit for me is I can use any bull from any breed and I don’t need to worry about inbreeding. It is all about maximising the heterosis effect that comes with cross-breeding, breeding healthy animals that last for a long time."
" The most exciting thing about the Fleckvieh is getting a dairy cow that lasts and holds its condition. "
" We have used a variety of beef in the past to try to reduce Bobby numbers, but most recently, our Short Gestation Belgian Blue has outperformed previous crops of calves from other breeds. We didn’t have to pull a single one in our last autumn calving. The Belgian Blue are vigorous and take to the feeders, unlike any other breed we have seen."
Farmer stories are key to creating robust discussions and perfecting the dairy genetics of tomorrow.
