Delivering the total package!
Dear friends,
In the past decade, the number of milking cows on farms grew tremendously, all over the world. This change asked for a different approach of farmers, which resulted that knowledge is nowadays more and more collected from outer sources, as well completed with own experiences. As a farmer, you have to face difficult decisions to gain financial farm profit as result. For you, only the best counts!
AI Total understands this mindset and offers genetics which show strong, stabilized breeding values in production, conformation and health; all traits that make the difference in gaining profit. We complete our support to you, with our management tool, TotalMate. Using TotalMate saves you a lot of time, so this can be spend on other activities at/around the farm.
We want to thank all of you who worked together with AI Total for the past few years. Your positive feedback motivates us to keep developing high quality genetics for you, so you can breed the next cow generation that will generate financial benefit on your farm.

SIRE SUMMARY HIGHLIGHTS
DG ALBERO ELDORADO keeps steady as AI Total’s finest with +2744 GTPI! ELDORADO shows great results for feed efficiency (+224) and combined fat and protein (+180). With easy calvings, positive DPR and and high type, ELDORADO is the embodiment of the Total Package!
WELCOME TUCKER is the #1 available bull in the breed with +2669 GTPI, over +2.50 PTAT, combined with over +2500 PTAM and positive DPR. TUCKER’S health traits keep improving, what can be called quite impressive in combination with his production level!
KONING TARZAN is the highest Silver son in the breed with over +2700 GTPI and +2.84 PTAT! Besides this, TARZAN has great production ánd health traits! He remained strong on the Canadian index with +3394 GLPI, +14 conformation, +173 CFP, which makes TARZAN the #4 Silver son in Canada.
Both Kingboy sons DG KINGBOY SNIPER and DKR BAYLABOY are still on top of the GTPI list. With great production yields, excellent health traits and both over 2 points for type, BAYLABOY and SNIPER are very complete. Besides high GTPI, both bulls rank high in multiple European indexes!
COL YUPPI and PEAK EXOTIC YODER continue to amaze us, as they rise on the GTPI scale! YUPPI combines high milk +1718 and +140 CFP with great feed efficiency +183 and easy calvings (SCE 6.9).
YODER has extreme high components and combines this with easy calvings 6.8 SCE, great DPR +2.0 and low somatic sells.
Veteran VEKIS DG POPEYE shows an impressive index; high components (0,20% F and 0,12% P), terrific health traits (DPR +1.4, SCC 2.69, PL +5.9), great type ánd easy calvings!! On top, POPEYE just has something extra; he happened to score 561, the most wanted aAa score in the breed ánd A2/A2!

EXOTIC YODER (PAGE 18)
OH DG ALASKA RED is the #2 Red and White bull in the breed with conventional semen available and free of haplotypes with +2507 GTPI! ALASKA stands out with high production figures PTAM +1633, easy calvings +7.1, high type +2.10 and he inherits great health traits! On top of this, ALASKA has no Apple blood in his pedigree!
CAPS DG APPLE PIE RED broke a new record by being the #3 Red and White bull on the Swiss index with +1558 ISET. Besides this, APPLE PIE is the #1 Red and White bull in the Netherlands for his outstanding health traits and great udders (+117)! APPLE PIE is also available sexed!
New daughter proven bull CHAMPION KING ELSON, shows great production figures, as well as high components, which is something we could expect with ELSON as a production improver! The feed efficiency +147 FE is impressive and ELSON has on top of all this Beta Casein BB!
HOOD M-O-M EMMETT is keeping the standards high! Farmers are very positive about their cows, as EMMETT’s daughters confirm his components and produce easily! Daughters have great thurl widthness with sloped rump angles, which gives easy calvings. From the sounds, EMMETT is an easy to use bull, and a great fit for robot milking as well!
BROEKS TAPIC and BROEKS TYCHIP will blow your minds when you visit the Progeny tour in the Netherlands in June. Their first daughters are milking and look great!
TAPIC’s daughters have it all; they have good feet and legs and impressive udders and easily produce with high components. They inherit the great health traits of TAPIC, such as low somatic cells and high conception rate, with easy calvings and high PL.
The first daughters of TYCHIP live up to the expectations; fancy young cows, with great quality udders and overall type, and good productions!
