An index release under the sign of change

Published : 2021-07-06 - Categories : News

The indexation of April 2021 is marked by changes in both the ISU formula and the readjustment of the annual base of 5.6 ISU points.

These changes in the ISU formula are intended to increase the functionality of our animals, always with the aim of optimizing the economic traits.

In spite of these changes, it is a nice release for the bulls of our program, which shows that our genetic team had well anticipated these changes.

The ranking of our bulls perfectly reflects our orientations: easy to use, balanced bulls with a strong increase in the Polled gene, the proof of our leadership in this market segment.

Our April 2021 release in a few figures:

Top 10 ISU = 4 Genes Diffusion bulls
Top 100 ISU = 38 Genes Diffusion bulls
Top 10 Polled P = 6 Genes Diffusion bulls
Top 10 homozygous Polled = 6 Genes Diffusion bulls
