The St. Jacobs brand serves as the home of ABS Global’s Linear Choice program. The development of Linear Choice takes the commercial dairyman’s needs into consideration. To meet the demands of commercial dairy producers looking for well-balanced cows, sires in the Linear Choice line are hand-selected to produce dairy cows who are healthy, productive, and well-built. Linear Choice sires are right-side linear to generate moderately sized, healthy, and productive cows. Linear Choice is the program where FORM MEETS FUNCTION!
These sires are being released following the April 2024 Sire Summary. Our Linear Choice sires have balanced proofs with production, type, and health that make them practical for commercial dairies. Here are how the sires collectively performed this summa this sire summary.
- Of the 26 bulls producing semen, half of the sires are over 100 Fat
- 8 sires are over 60 Protein
- 9 sires are over 3000 GTPI
Let’s meet the new guys of the Linear Choice lineup.
