4 New St. Jacobs Studs in the Barn
It’s like Christmas morning…but in OCTOBER!
FOUR NEW SIRES have joined the St. Jacobs lineup—two St. Jacobs Choice, one Linear Choice, and one Red and White Choice. Before we jump into the bulls, let’s review what each program means for you as dairy producers.
For producers seeking TYPE WITHOUT COMPROMISE, rely on the St. Jacobs Choice program to deliver outstanding results. St. Jacobs Choice was developed through the merging of Judge’s Choice, which focused primarily on show animals, and Breeder’s Choice, emphasizing functional types with top productivity and health traits. With St. Jacobs Choice, you can develop functional cows that are also visually appealing.
Our Linear Choice program is designed for producers who want to raise well-rounded, resilient, and healthy cows from proven cow families that perform well in a commercial dairy setting. The core promise of Linear Choice is WHERE FORM MEETS FUNCTION! This program is highly valued worldwide for producing balanced, moderate-sized, healthy, and productive dairy cows that meet the needs of modern dairy operations.
Our Red and White Choice program features sires that trace back to the most elite Red and White cow families in the breed. This program combines top-tier Black and White genetics with the Red and White population, ensuring the best of both worlds. Importantly, all sires included in the lineup are Red and White.
Now that we know the strengths of each program, it is time to meet the new releases.
