Beef InFocus – Beef on Dairy, but not as you know it
ABS Beef InFocus™, powered by NuEra Genetics™, delivers proven and reliable beef genetics for the dairy producer to maximize calf crop value while driving beef supply chain efficiency.
Tailored Beef Genetics for Dairies
Beef InFocus sires are specifically created for dairy cows to maximize dairy and beef supply chain profitability.
- NuEra Genetics is the genetic engine behind Beef InFocus.
- NuEra develops an elite source of composite sires intentionally designed for performance on dairy breeds.
- Each sire carries the XB breed code and NuEra in their name, is DNA-confirmed homozygous black and homozygous polled and evaluated for:
- Growth
- Feed Intake
- Carcass Quality
Proven Performance on Dairies
Fertility and calving performance - traits that are economically important for dairies - are collected through ABS Global’s Real World Data® (RWD™) system.
- To qualify as a Beef InFocus fertility graduate, a sire must have a minimum of 500 breeding observations from at least four different herds.
- Calving performance is evaluated by collecting data and confirming:
- Calving ease
- Stillbirth
- Gestation length

Data Driven Results
ABS Global is committed to developing and offering elite genetics that drive profitability.
Profit from genetic progress requires a planned strategy to ensure value from each and every pregnancy.
ABS works with dairies to create a comprehensive genetic plan that aligns with the dairy’s goals. Most plans utilize Sexcel® Sexed Genetics on the genetically-superior animals and strategically use ABS Beef InFocus on the bottom of the herd to create the high-demand, beef cross calf the industry is seeking.
