1 BABS GENETICS SEMEN PROGRAM THE POLLED ALTERNATIVE!! Polled Blonde d Aquitaine breeding material from BABS PolledBlonde Our vision is to make a superior breed even better by developing homozygotic polled animals on basis of the best and highest indexed breeding material available, and by use of modern breeding techniques...

2 Breeding material from BABS PolledBlonde We herewith have the pleasure to publish our consolidated list of semen. It is our objective to offer semen from relevant Blonde d Aquitaine pedigree bulls with outstanding breeding values for growth, exterior and size. Our semen program comprises semen from our own homozygous and heterozygous polled bulls, as well as Danish horned bulls of superior body. All breeding material we offer is of bulls with a typical French appearance with respect to body. The specified indices are calculated by Danish Cattle according the Animal Model method. Index figures have averages of 100 and standard deviations of 5 units, i.e. 2/3 of the calculated indices are between 95 and 105. The S-index indicates the overall economic breeding value, and is calculated after combined weighting of individual index sizes and their economic value. declared with a security below 30% are not included.

6 Ordering: We receive your orders at or on tel (m) / (t). Blonde d'aquitaine has proven to be the best beef breed when it comes to the value of the net daily - and this is where the money are. Polledness is a highly appreciated functional trait in modern cattle production, not at least due to its friendliness to modern production systems, including savings on de-horning.
