FutureStar Bull List

How is FutureStar different from other products and programs?

There’s a tendency to group all unproven bulls from the day they are sampled until the day they are “official” as the same. In fact, over this three year period they are continually gaining reliability and accuracy. Look at the proving process as a continuum that a bull steadily passes through.

What does your herd gain with FutureStar?

• Highly fertile ConceptPlus semen
• Known CE & SSB information
• Deep Health trait pedigrees with PAs for Health traits equivalent to HealthPlus status to the individuals in FutureStar
• Leverage Top Quality Genetics 1-2 years ahead of traditional usage timelines.

What is the Value of FutureStar?

• Variety of pedigrees - different from proven sires
• With ConceptPlus sires holding a 3% fertility advantage over the industry average, FutureStar bulls deliver $6 extra value per dose* on this aspect alone

*Virginia Tech researchers (1999) pegged a value of $2 for every point increase in conception rate. In other words a dairyproducer can substantiate investing $2 more for each percentage of conception rate advantage
