In January 2014 we sat down with Altus and Anandi Brooks of Solderskraal Jerseys near Swellendam in the Western Cape to plan the road ahead for their herd. We sut up a custom selection index according to their specific breeding goals and set out to help them achieve their goals. With the use of AltaGPS we not only selected the right bulls according to their goals but we also helped them mate their cows according to these goals. We also tracked the progress of the herd by using the Herd Female Index function in AltaGPS.

The progress the herd has shown with 100% Alta Genetics bulls has been nothing short of incredible! There has been a marked improvement in production, health and functional type and we are not done yet!

Talk to us to see how we can help you achieve your unique breeding goals to help you breed the cows that will make your dairy more profitable!

We’re not just a semen company. Our team of dedicated and passionate Alta people are here to consult on all things dairy management.

As the summer months approach and temperatures increase, it is vital to consider air flow in your barns. To make the most out of your fans they should be:

🔹 Turned on, facing the right way, and directed correctly so the air reaches the cows.
🔹 Cleaned to prevent restricted air flow caused by dirt buildup.
🔹 Operating at the proper speed.

Check your fans BEFORE heat strikes to ensure your cows stay cool this summer!
