ABS Feed Efficiency index identifies the most profitable genetic combinations of feed intake and gain. Backed by over two decades of progeny feed intake data, ABS is the clear industry leader in proven feed efficiency genetics. Feed costs represent the biggest expense in beef production and improved feed efficiency continues to be a primary research focus at ABS and a key point of emphasis in our product development and sire selection programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our indexes account for feed efficiency in a way that optimizes its value as part of an overall approach to balanced breeding, emphasizing its importance with growth and carcass. Our index models also provide for future-proofing, allowing us to account for market fluctuations and changing goal posts<\/p>Scott Newman,

NuEra Terminal Genetics<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Terminal Genetics for a New Era<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

ABS NuEra genetics are a differentiated  product of the ABS genetic nucleus program. The current NuEra T14 line has been developed and selected to improve terminal trait profitability by maximizing beef productivity, efficiency and sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NuEra T14 line has been designed as an ideal terminal solution for maximizing beef production from dairy cows. It is also an excellent option for commercial beef producers that are interested in maximizing end-product value in all or part of their herds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multi-Sire Packs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

NuEra genetics are not available as individual sires but exclusively in  heterospermic packs containing multiple bulls with similar elite index values. These multi-sire NuEra T14 packs are available in two levels designed to deliver only the best in genetic merit and fertility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
