NxGEN Program

DELIVERING ELITE GENETICS EARLIER

By the direction and guidance of Select Sires’ board of directors, the cooperative is pleased to bring NxGEN™ to the marketplace. This membership program is another initiative to minimize the generation interval on farm and maximize genetic gain, while also protecting the cooperative’s investments to benefit customer-owners.

“Today’s customer-owners value and respect genetic improvement more than at any point in history. It is our responsibility to provide them with the most elite genetics to maximize herd progress,” explains Jeff Ziegler, vice president of dairy cattle breeding at Select Sires.

For customer-owners striving for unprecedented genetic gains, the NxGEN program offers unique advantages. Qualifying members who complete the contract will have access to an exclusive lineup of elite sires.

Member herds will benefit immensely from the impact of these profitable genetics. The opportunity to market resulting offspring back to Select Sires also exists.

NxGEN sires are identified by a special designation logo. The inaugural class includes 507HO14364 EISAKU and 550HO14134 RENEGADE. EISAKU is an elite balanced sire from the famed Morgan Era cow family and a premier component producer, with impressive milk yield and modern type. RENEGADE, an outcross extraordinaire, is a Jaltaoak from a 7HO12421 MILLINGTON dam and an extreme component improver. Both sires are over +$1,000 Cheese Merit (CM$), offer more than +$950 Net Merit (NM$) and are available in both conventional and gender SELECTed semen.
