Dairy Sires Spring 2014 Your Investment, Your Profit
Dairy Sires 2014 Fertility Is our Business
Profit focused Research & Science The Irish dairy industry is benefiting enormously from the development of the EBI The benefits of a system that maximises the utilisation of grazed grass over high concentrate based and/or confinement production systems include lower production costs and greater energy usage efficiency as well as a reduced requirement for capital investment. The ideal grazing dairy cow must achieve high output per unit area from grazed grass, have a propensity for high grass dry matter intake, be fertile and healthy and be robust to fluctuations in feed quality and quantity. As herd size increases, the ideal grazing dairy cow must also be easy care (i.e., easy calving, easily go back in calf, low incidence of lameness, mastitis and other diseases). The Irish Economic Breeding Index (EBI) was developed by a group of world leading international scientists in 2001 with the goal of rapidly breeding the ideal grazing cow. Since 2001, the EBI has been religiously used by the vast majority of Irish dairy farmers to increase their herd profit; a plethora of retrospective analyses clearly show that each €1 increase in herd EBI results in a €2 increase in profit/cow/ lactation. Unlike most international breeding indexes, the EBI is reviewed annually, in consultation
with the industry, to ensure it is up-to-date and pertinent to future dairy production systems. Moreover, the relevance of the EBI to futuristic production systems is continually and rigorously evaluated in both controlled research studies at Teagasc (Next Generation Herd) and across a range of different herd environments (e.g., different herd sizes). The EBI is particularly focused on achieving high milk solids production from an easy-care cow; this is hugely important in larger herds. Unlike many other breeding indexes for grazing dairy cows, the EBI includes “easy care traits” like fertility, calving ease, mastitis, lameness, temperament and milking speed. The day of individual cow management is over! A world-class breeding program has ensured that sustainable and rapid genetic gain is consistently being achieved in EBI. This guarantees a new generation of genetically elite bulls annually. At present the rate of genetic improvement (increase in EBI) within the Irish dairy herd is approximately €25/cow/year. This has increased from €5 in early 2000. The increased rate of gain recently may be attributed to three major factors: 1) the introduction of the EBI in 2001 (with emphasis on both production and fertility), 2) the establishment of the G€N€ IR€LAND progeny test program in 2005 (with a focus
on high EBI young bulls selected in Ireland), and 3) the introduction of genomics in 2009. Retrospective analysis of the past 5 years of genomic selection shows that it is up to 30% more accurate than traditional genetic evaluations. Enhancements made to the EBI has benefited dairy farmers, the national breeding programme and by association the entire Irish dairy industry. There is clear unequivocal evidence that the EBI is delivering profit for Irish farmers. The EBI should also be suited to grazing production systems in other countries.

Allow us to Introduce ourselves.... Hello everybody and welcome to the first Ireland Genetics UK brochure, I am proud to announce that Gareth’s Grassland Advisory Service has teamed up with the National Cattle Breeding Centre (NCBC) in Ireland to establish Ireland Genetics UK Ltd, to provide UK farmers with top quality high EBI bulls. I have long been an admirer and promoter of the EBI breeding index as I feel it is an index that aims to breed moderate sized
commercial cows, and has a very even balance of fertility and production. In short it has all the ingredients to breed profitable long lasting cows. In this brochure you will have an insight into NCBC and its breeding programme, along with an explanation from Teagasc Moorepark about the EBI index and the Irish Genomic programme. When you add to this the extensive unrivalled line up of high EBI
Why the EBI Index?

“The EBI index and quality genetics are integral to profitable seasonal dairy farming. High fertility allows for higher output through longer lactations and more mature cows. High milk solids genetics allow for maximisation of milk value”
