A Focused and Committed Partner

Alta and Jerseyland Sires are dedicated to meeting and exceeding the needs of progressive dairymen around the world. Efforts are continually under way by all departments to deliver the most profitable product in the marketplace. This is all encompassing with Health, Production and Type. ConceptPlus and HealthPlus programs have now been added to the Alta Jersey lineup utilizing data from progressive Jersey dairies throughout the United States. ConceptPlus sires will deliver a 2-3 percentage point improvement over average conception rates in your herd. The HealthPlus designation offers an easy way to evaluate a bulls overall ability to sire healthy, trouble free, four event cows. This means cows that only have four events during their lactation – Fresh, Breeding, Preg Check, Dry Off. At a time when health and fertility are in the limelight it is fitting that Alta’s new release sire, 11JE0833 Garrett, is a breed leader for DPR, SCS and PL. It takes a committed partner with industry leading programs and genetics you can trust to deliver the results you aspire. Alta is delivering on their motto:

Highlights

122JE5198 Abe continues his dominance in the Jersey breed for the elusive combination of fertility, milk, components, and productive life. Abe is a ConceptPlus and HealthPlus sire with 98% reliability, he has been on the top of the JPI™ list for four years. Other second crop sires such as 122JE5181 Saber, 122JE5200 Futurity, 122JE5194 Rasmus, 122JE5197 Do Right and 11JE0753 Echo continue to add daughters and solidify their proof numbers from their solid and reliable first crop information. This is further proof that sampling the right sires in well managed commercial environments does result in proof stability. 11JE0814 Rubex and 11JE0806 Carrier not only hit the top of the JPI™ list, they also are both +2,000 lbs milk. They make excellent efficient cheese producers. Alta511 Sexed Semen is available on many of the Alta principal sires, from genetics tested to perform in progressive dairies.

New Addition

11JE0833 Shen-Green Jace GARRETT-ET – Jace x Barber x Berretta x Sky Line
The first Jace son to enter Alta’s proven lineup, Garrett is a Health Leader in the industry. Daughters breed back quickly and last multiple trouble free lactations. Expect Garrett to sire daughters that are very balanced. They are tall, open with a clean flat bone and a foot angle designed to last. Their udders are very well attached with ample clearance, strong cleft and ideal teat placement.

Specialty Sire Highlight

11JE0729 Silver Spring BELMONT – Centurion x Ren Belle II x Midnight Shadow x Duncan Belle
Belmont is an Alta high profile Specialty Sire who is now the #3 PTAT sire in the breed at +2.6. Ren Belle was also undefeated as a 2 year old – 2003 New York State Fair Grand Champion and 1st place Sr. 2 year old at the All American in Louisville. It’s hard to go wrong with a Centurion son, add it to the Duncan Belle family that has had tremendous success, and the possibilities are great.
