120 cows on the point to be covered!

07/11/2018

In a few days 90 cows and 25 heifers will be put to reproduction! Here is a little overview of the bulls that we will use.

These last campaigns we relied heavily on Grisbi and Hélios two confirmed bulls who arrive at the end of their career, only Helios will still be used on a dozen females.

Two bulls will take over Maruel and Maximus. Both bought at the station of Borie and aged 3 years they will be able to assume significant lots. Especially since the production seems promising. We have about twenty calves of each bull which gives us a good overview.

 The first products of Maximus are in his image, mixed with good thickness and especially with moderate and very regular birth weights which will allow us to use it on heifers.

Regarding Maruel we had bought to improve the breed qualities, legs and the cheast depth. And that's what he seems to bring in a breeding mixted type.

Then we will try two little new ones, Nelson born in Marc Jouve who has evolved this year and Nightclub born in Gaec batilfol and son of Imanol champion of the last national competition.

Finally, like every year, we will inseminate part of the herd. We chose to limit ourselves to three bulls.

• Joker we have already had a dozen products and seems to cross our lines.
  
• Madison a bull with a new pedigree that we wish to try
  
• Jintou, not being able to have doses of Heritier we will try one of his sons especially to ensure early calving on some heifers.
