GROUNDED IN SCIENCE BACKED BY PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE
MEET OUR TEAM OF GRAZING EXPERTS:
JEFF ZIEGLER USA ”GrazingPRO® does a nice job of representing the entire grazing segment. Yet, we all know there are, and likely always will be, variations of interest within the GrazingPRO® designees. Utilising the Zoetis health traits, along with the CDCB traits, is the most ideal way to provide an answer to breeding for grazing systems. Mastitis resistance at 5% of the GrazingPRO® index may seem minor, yet so many other health and repro traits need to be incorporated, and most all have a positive correlation to mastitis, you will actually receive an indirect positive response to mastitis, even without directly selecting for it. Production is where some major differences in the use of the GrazingPRO® index will occur. Percent components as well as yield has varying acceptability levels, so there is no “one size fits all” answer. GrazingPRO® today does a nice job of finding the sweet spot of these various ideals. Any time we can show the genetic response by grouping bulls based on the index that makes them succeed, is the proof that the index is delivering as promised.”
VICE PRESIDENT DAIRY CATTLE BREEDING, SELECT SIRES, INC. 38 YEARS EXPERIENCE
CRAIG ROBERTSON NEW ZEALAND ”Ensuring our GrazingPRO® sires have industry leading components is a big focus for us in order to increase the profitability for our grazing producers not only in New Zealand, but around the world. The GrazingPRO® index is designed to breed smaller, more efficient cows for grazing systems. Cows that don’t need high amounts of supplement to be profitable producers from grass. The size and nature of the US dairy population has enabled us to make genetic gains on our GrazingPRO® line-up that has not been seen in grazing markets before. As US technology and research continues to lead the world, this rate of genetic improvement will continue to increase. The ability to select and breed sires based on quantified and scientifically backed Health & Wellness traits adds direct value to our customers’ herds. Sires that breed easily managed and efficient sized cows, who convert grass into volumes of high component milk, whilst getting in-calf within the mating season, is what we’re striving for and what GrazingPRO® gives us.”
GENERAL MANAGER, WORLD WIDE SIRES NEW ZEALAND. 5 YEARS EXPERIENCE
CONOR MORLEY IRELAND ”The ability to survive a block-calving low-input grass-based system requires many traits, but a key trait is fertility. High DPR WWS sires have continually demonstrated their ability to deliver high fertility in Irish grazing conditions. Daughters of these bulls have a lower calving interval compared to their herd mates on these farms, and resist being voluntary culled due to infertility. The ideal grazing cow for Ireland needs to survive in a 365-380 day calving block and maintain that each year consecutively for 5+ lactations and produce more kgs of milk solids than kgs of liveweight. Her production of milk solids must be driven from high percents rather than high milk volume. She must have the ability to survive low levels of concentrate inputs, ideally with low stature and high body condition and outperform other grass-based genetics on genetic traits like mastitis or lameness. We get all this with GrazingPRO®.”
MANAGING DIRECTOR, WORLD WIDE SIRES IRELAND. 11 YEARS EXPERIENCE
PAUL MEADE SOUTH AFRICA ”Our goal is to breed ‘Warrior Cows’: low intervention profitable producers. Local grazing herds require the shorter, wider kind of cow that holds condition. She must have a quality mammary system with superior udder health and excellent mobility to get to and from the pasture. The grazing cow has to be fertile but also a good producer and efficient converter of grass to high-solids milk and do this year after year after year. It is in longevity (based on fertility) that dairy profitability depends. GrazingPRO® helps to achieve that goal.”
SALESMAN, WORLD WIDE SIRES SOUTH AFRICA. 27 YEARS EXPERIENCE
HERBY LUTZ USA ”I have had the opportunity to have my boots on the ground with grazing herds in many countries around the world for the past 25 years like New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Colombia, and Costa Rica and in the US. These herds, no matter of location, are looking for high components, fertility, smaller stature and healthy cows; all of which are incorporated into the GrazingPRO® formula. As we bring Jersey bulls into the GrazingPRO® program we are looking for bulls that have plus component percents and kilograms, with high Daughter Pregnancy Rate, Cow Conception Rate, and Heifer Conception Rate. We want bulls that are below average stature but have strength and have less dairy form. We also feel that udder depth and cleft, along with both CDCB Mastitis and Z_Mastitis, is very important to create trouble free cows. We utilize the calf traits Z_Calf Livability, Z_Calf Respiratory Disease, and Z_Calf Scours. This allows for the creation of animals that perform well in production and health and make calves that are easier to develop into the next profitable generation.”

OUR CUSTOMERS SAY IT BEST
“Our crossbred herd was mainly New Zealand genetics but we became frustrated because udders weren’t lasting and lack of genetic diversity with a risk of inbreeding was limiting our potential,” Cam Edgecombe said.
“Those concerns led to us changing to overseas genetics – a decision which put us on a trajectory to achieve 2000 kgs milk solids per hectare from 640 cows. It’s very satisfying to look over the herd and compare the performance of different genetics. Last year our New Zealand bred 2 year olds averaged 520 kgs milk solids whereas our overseas 2 year olds did 560 kgs to 570 kgs – a good 50 kgs more per cow.”
Cam and Anna Edgecombe, Taieri, Otago
“We purchased the 270 cow herd seven years ago as 50/50 Sharemilkers on the family’s System 1 farm,” Amanda said. “When we took over the herd we were concerned about lack of substance particularly in the Jerseys. We wanted strong, moderately sized cows, so began looking for Jersey sires which would improve the strength of our cows.
That search took us to WWS which had real strength in its bull line-up with a range of bulls which had the substance and production we wanted.
We changed to WWS 100% three years ago and the difference, today, is obvious. The first WWS heifers will go into the herd in 2022 – they’re out grazing now and look really good.”
Carter-Hanson and Grant Hanson, Stepping Stone Trust Partnership, South Taranaki
The Bolger family milk 390 cows on the family’s 140 ha milking platform at Mataura. In 2020/2021 the herd produced 188,000 kgms and are “on target to produce 195,000 kgms in a few years” Cliff Bolger said.
“The herd was predominantly NZ genetics but we moved to World Wide Sires some years ago.
As soon as the first WWS calves hit the ground we could see they were superior – they took us to another level. Our heifers were ready to produce right from their first season.”
Cliff Bolger, Mataura, Eastern Southland
In just five years sharemilkers Craig and May Gregory have increased the total milksolids produced on the 120 hectare farm by a staggering 76,000 kg from the same number of cows. The difference according to Craig is genetics and feeding.
“I did a lot of research into genetics and everything pointed toward North American genetics. We needed more genetic diversity from international commercial sires siring daughters producing up to 1200 kgms per cow. We wanted a cow which would make more milk components and volume, with the fertility and health traits which would see her last for eight plus seasons.
I use elite commercial grazing bulls with high components, volume, fertility, calving ease, health, strength and longevity. It’s about investing today to make money tomorrow. And it’s about staying in the game!”
Craig and May Gregory, Manawatu
