Male Sexed genetics from our NuEra beef sires, offering a revolutionary solution for dairy farmers looking to improve the profitability of their beef cross calves.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Sexcel\u00ae<\/strong> Male Beef?<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sexcel Male Beef provides male sexed genetics engineered to boost herd profitability. This product ensures the delivery of high fertility, easy-calving, and exceptional quality male offspring. Seamlessly integrated into personalised genetic plans, Sexcel Male Beef maximises the value of your beef calf crop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Choose Sexcel Male Beef?<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Typically, male beef cross progeny generate higher profits for the entire supply chain throughout their whole lifecycle. This profitability often begins at the dairy farm level, where many farmers earn an average of \u00a370-\u00a3100 more for male beef cross calves compared to female beef cross calves. This advantage extends through to the rearing and finishing phases, as calves grow faster, have fewer days to harvest and produce more valuable carcasses. Male beef cross off-spring average around \u00a3150 more in profitability compared to female beef cross animals from the same dam. With this economic advantage in mind, Genus ABS developed Sexcel Male Beef genetics to boost herd profitability. Our genetics are created with the beef and dairy supply chain in mind to ensure optimal return on your investment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Incorporating Sexcel Male Beef into Your Breeding Strategy<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sexcel Male Beef fits seamlessly into an enhanced sexed and beef breeding strategy, enabling your herd to increase genetic progress and maximise the value of beef cross calf production. This involves: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Breeding your high-performing females using Sexcel Female Dairy genetics, to create replacement females for your herd. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Breeding your first and second lactation cows to breed a high-value male beef calf from, using Sexcel Male Beef genetics. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. Breeding your lower-end animals to produce male and female beef cross calves, using conventional NuEra Beef Genetics. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Demonstrating how to perform an enhanced breeding strategy:<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Our team of genetic experts can help you to identify which animals to inseminate at every stage of the breeding strategy to ensure it aligns to your breeding goals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Breeding your lower-performing animals with NuEra Beef Genetics allows you to create a calf that has a value for the beef supply chain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        NuEra Beef Genetics ensures that calves are born easily, have quick growth rates and consume less feed, making them better than your average beef progeny, in turn making sure you can sell them more quickly with better margins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        2. Male Sexed Beef Genetics<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        Breeding your first and second lactation animals who are genetically undesirable but are positive for fertility will allow you to maximise the value from your beef calf crop. A beef cross male calf is worth approximately \u00a3100 more than a female calf from the same cow. More selective breeding decisions can add value to your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        3. Female Sexed Dairy Genetics<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

        Breeding your high-performance females with Sexcel allows you to create better cows faster, by breeding the superior animals in the herd. With more than 6.9 million inseminations, Sexcel is the highest fertility product in the industry. Conception rates are 0.8% points higher for Holstein cows and 2.7% points higher for Holstein heifers. The result is you can achieve higher value pregnancies quicker than anywhere else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        For over a decade, Genus ABS has gathered extensive data on beef cross progeny from the Holstein population to identify the genetic differences that enhance beef production efficiency from rearing to harvest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
