Understanding our Sire Directory

The guide below had been designed to help you easily navigate through our autumn 2021 directory, this we hope will allow you to make a more informed sire selection. We as a company offer the most expansive and transparent range of data available to the Irish farmer - utilising both US country of origin and Irish ICBF data.

1. Key Profit Traits Total Performance Index (TPI) is a multi-trait index calculated combining production, Type, longevity and fertility into a single value. The higher the value the better.

2. Net Merit (NM$) measures the expected profit that offspring will provide over its lifetime. The higher the number, the more potential profit.

3. Dairy Wellness Profit (DWP$) is a multi-trait selection index which includes production, fertility, Type, longevity and wellness traits, including

Polled test results. The higher the number, the higher the expected profitability. 4. Herd Health Profit (HHP$)

The HHP$ Index is designed to produce cows that are highly productive and built to last.
