DUKE sires moderately above average frames with a great foot angle. His daughters have solidly attached rear udders with good cleft and teat size along with placement. DUKE has ample pedigree value with his high health traits, JPITM, CFP and solid milk yield. DUKE puts together a complete profitable package and becomes an easy fit into mating programs.

11JE0824 PLACIDO – Sunbow Placido – Dunkirk x VG-84% Lotus
PLACIDO is from a cow family that has been a household name for many years - the same family that produced 122JE5118 Quest. PLACIDO has the ability to improve milk volume and component levels. The milk yield comes from his sire, 122JE5090 Dunkirk, who was the top milk sire in the industry for many years. The maternal side adds in well above average component levels from outcross genetics. PLACIDO sires moderate all around type resulting in no significant impact.

11JE0806 CARRIER – BW Carrier-ET– Rueben x EX-93% Avery
CARRIER is a maternal brother to BW Award only he brings a different variety of traits to the table. CARRIER becomes an easy sire to like with him excelling in milk yield and overall type. Daughters show width from end to end while still having a clean flat bone and open dairy rib. They are very balanced animals coming with above average size. Their steep foot angle and high udder breakdown enable them to be easy keepers in the barn and pleasing to work with. CARRIER is a top sire in the industry for pounds of milk but what sets him apart is all of the milk coming from a +6.88 Jersey Udder Index - udder height and width with strong attachments and ample clearance. CARRIER is the ideal choice for adding milk to the tank while maintaining and improving type.

11JE0839 PRIMER – BW Primer – Rueben x EX-90% Centurion
PRIMER is from the same cow family that produced BW Country; his MGD is a full sister to Country. Primer sires extremely open ribbed dairy cows of average size making them good fits in commercial environments. They have high and wide rear udders with an abundance of veination making them eye catchers in the cow lots. PRIMER is a great source to increase production levels and combined fat and protein pounds.



11JE0799 HARRISON – Rosevale GBoy Harrison – Golden x VG-88% Montana
HARRISON is backed by a proficient maternal line including five generations of VG dams that completed multiple high fat lactations. He enters into the Alta lineup and industry as a leader for overall type and Jersey Udder Index (JUITM). Daughters are most noted for their welded on fore udders with flashy rear udders that have plenty of clearance and neatly tucked in teats. HARRISON daughters are also straight tracking and stand with a steep foot angle enabling superior performance in a variety of environments. Component levels are high with exceptional fat levels.

PROVEN SIRE HIGHLIGHTS

122JE5198 ABE – Ahlem Lemvig Abe-ET – Lemvig x EX-91% Skyline
ABE is a 2nd crop success story! With the addition of 371 production and 172 type daughters ABE has solidified himself as a breed JPITM leader who combines top production levels with extreme components. This low EFI, high production package has proven to produce daughters that are long time performers in today’s commercial environments. ABE daughters improve their overall type as they mature and are easy milkers with ideal teat placements and well defined clefts.

122JE5200 FUTURITY – Sunset Canyon Futurity-ET – 122JE5067 Jason x EX-95% Berretta
FUTURITY is the reliable source for balanced cows with phenomenal udders. With second crop data added this sire summary, FUTURITY is a standout by being +2.0 or better for fore udder, RUW and RUH. The average size daughters perform with ease producing high percent components and breeding back quickly.

122JE5181 SABER – O.F. Montana Saber-ET – Montana x EX-94% Lester
SABER stays on top with over 1,000 production and type daughters putting him at 98% reliability. What you can expect are racy daughters that standout from the calf hutches to the free stalls – ‘eye catching’ daughters that are tall and long with a hard top and uphill run. SABER daughters last with a hard hoof and steep foot angle. Add to this well above average milk production and low SCS and you have a winning combination.

11JE0769 REDWOOD – Shultz Paragon Redwood-ET – Paragon x EX-90% Hallmark
REDWOOD is still one of Alta’s top rated sires with over 1,000 lbs milk while not adding daughter numbers this sire summary. He continues to lead the way as one of the lowest SCS sires in the industry. REDWOOD’s long dairy daughters put on an udder admired from the rear for extreme height, great width and strong center support. From the side profile they will be noticed not only for their length of body but also for their long, smooth firmly attached fore udders.

11JE0790 FOREST - Forest Glen Judes Jason – Paramount x EX-90% Barber x EX-95% Berretta
FOREST now has some second lactation daughters fresh and we really like the way they have matured in overall frame and dimension while maintaining the eye catching mammary system they were so noted for in their first lactations. They continue to be straight trackers with a steep foot and ideal set to the leg. FOREST production remains average with above average protein.

122JE5194 RASMUS – Yosemite Lemvig Brook Rasmus – Lemvig x EX-90% Brook
RASMUS has proven his ability to produce consistently great udders on a small frame designed to maneuver and perform in free stall environments.

11JE0771 TUESDAY – Fanper Taco Tuesday F2961 – 122JE0101 Taco x EX-94% Berretta
TUESDAY is an above average production sire that also sires high components. He comes from a well known maternal line hailing from the Jenks herd in Idaho – a maternal brother to udder specialist 122JE5134 Barber Bill and from the same family as 11JE0753 Echo. TUESDAY is a good health trait sire with high PL and DPR.



11JE0798 SUNNY – MVF Kulp SJ Pmont Sunny-ET – Paramount x EX-92% Barber x EX-91% Sooner
SUNNY has added a few daughters this sire summary while others continued to mature through their first lactations and that resulted in an overall increase in milk pounds. This concludes in SUNNY’s status of above average production with standout protein content which is an excellent combination for producing cheese. Daughters perform well in all settings with a superior foot angle and ideal set. Their mammary systems are carried well above the hock with excellent height. SUNNY is a strong productive life and low SCS sire.

11JE0753 ECHO – Jenks All American Echo – American x EX-94% BVD
ECHO sires high milk volume with high fat content. ECHO daughters are very complete packages with size, strength and openness of rib along with a great rear view with udder height and width. ECHO hails from the same family as Alta sires 122JE5134 Barber Bill and 11JE0771 Tuesday.




122JE5197 DO RIGHT – Vee Tee Dunkirk Do Right-Et – 122JE5090 Dunkirk x EX-91% Dexter
DO RIGHT is a second crop user satisfaction sire. Like his sire, 122JE5090 Dunkirk, DO Right does so much right while easily producing volumes of milk from well defined udders that stay attached to be easily milked in parallel parlors. Milking daughters are very balanced animals with tremendous slope of rump.

11JE0740 WHISKEY – ISAU Wattlebrink Whisky – Taranak x Berretta
WHISKEY is a sire with international flair – combining some of the best genetics from New Zealand, United States and Australia. The long and dairy daughters excel in percent components with extra attention on fat. His low EFI and shallow udder depth make WHISKEY an easy fit into many breeding programs.

122JE5177 MAX – Wilsonview Avery Max-ET - 122JE5063 Avery x EX-92% Brook
MAX continues to be an Alta favorite. His high health traits, fertility and consistency in tremendous mammary systems make him a favorite for crossbreeding. Unfortunately, MAX’s career has come to an end and semen is becoming limited.
