New daughter-proven sire brings improved enviro-credentials

A new frontrunner has emerged in the daughter-proven sire ranking, published today (9 August) by AHDB Dairy. Bomaz Monument-P takes this position for the first time, as the influence of his early daughters milking outside the UK begins to be felt. These help earn this polled ABS Medley son a Profitable Lifetime Index (£PLI) of £785, along with high Predicted Transmitting Abilities (PTAs) for fat (43.9kg and +0.22%), daughter Lifespan (LS +134 days) and Calf Survival (CS +3).
