Launched in 2016, ABS Global operates this joint venture with De-Su Holsteins, North America\u2019s leading independent breeder of high NM$ (net merit dollars) and TPI\u00ae (total performance index) Holstein sires. <br> <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The De Novo Genetics team has developed a joint breeding program to combine the best genetics from both De-Su and ABS Global, focusing on the creation of Holstein genetics that help increase customer profitability through improved herd productivity, health, and efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ABS Global and De-Su \u2013 a family operation based in New Albin, Iowa, USA \u2013 have worked together for years. Both organisations share a breeding philosophy of building on traits of economic importance to customers. Darin Meyer, President, De-Su Holsteins, manages De Novo Genetics and has long championed breeding based around traits of commercial importance to dairy farmers. Offspring from the joint venture begin arriving to ABS Global facilities in mid-2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Darin has built De-Su\u2019s global reputation by personally selecting all matings for his herd, using genomic and other data to create the right combinations. He also employs his own philosophy of \u201clooking for animals that perform in the way we want them to, selecting for traits that will deliver maximum profitability for commercial dairy farmers. It\u2019s just pure genetics without frills.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote alignwide\"><blockquote><p>\u201cThe quality of the animals that De-Su has bred speaks for itself. They also have a large herd of elite females. We knew that working with them and harnessing this herd would help us drive genetic progress faster for farmers around the world.\u201d<\/p><cite>KATIE OLSON, GLOBAL DIRECTOR, DAIRY PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT, ABS GLOBAL<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The tactic works. His animals have been marketed all over the world and more than 65 bulls with the De-Su prefix are currently available.<br> ABS sires bred by De-Su include 29HO14062 GILLESPY (well over half a million units sold), 29HO16714 BALISTO and 29HO16667 TOPSY (popular genomic sires that are now also top proven sires), and more recently, 29HO18208 SPECTRE and 29HO18348 QUANTUM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote alignwide\"><blockquote><p>\u201cI saw ABS as a good fit for De-Su too. We share a similar philosophy, we are both interested in developing new traits and we both want to harness science to improve breeding.\u201d <\/p><cite>DARIN MEYER, DE-SU HOLSTEINS PRESIDENT AND DE NOVO GENETICS MANAGER<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/genus-preprod.go-vip.net\/absglobal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2020\/02\/Products-DeNovo.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1653\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Increasing Herd Productivity and Customer Profitability De Novo Genetics has a clear mission: Develop elite and differentiated Holstein genetics for ABS Global customers around the world.
