€ EBI EXPLANATION

EBI – ECONOMIC BREEDING INDEX

The Economic Breeding Index (EBI) has transformed dairy breeding in Ireland since its introduction in 2001. It helps farmers evaluate the genetic potential of dairy animals and make informed breeding decisions, particularly in grass-based systems.

The index includes eight sub-indexes, emphasizing milk production, which accounts for 32% of the EBI By assigning economic values to traits, the EBI reflects overall genetic merit

Updated in November 2022, it now includes a Carbon Sub Index to address sustainability Backed by national genotyping, the €EBI shows significant economic returns, with each €1 of EBI resulting in €2 of profit, highlighting its importance for dairy herd performance

EXCELLENCE

Mr Bingham has used over 1700 straws of YPERIOS Excellence since 2021

He says ‘I have not a bad word to say about any of the calves. All have been superb at calving & have equally good temperaments. I am impressed with the quality & muscling and will continue to use YPERIOS Excellence from Synetics UK’ MR BINGHAM

Megan Dowson, trainee auctioneer at Darlington farmers mart – ‘Sellers of the INRA95 calves say that the top points of using the breed INRA95 bulls are; Easy calving, excellent calf vigour, outstanding growth rate and of course exceptional prices!

Buyers of the breed comment that the scope of growth and natural muscling abilities are the breeds top qualities’ Megan Dowson, Auctioneer

INRA 95

6-week-old Lascaro bull calf Frazer said ‘Over the moon with how they grow like mushrooms! I’m happy to put them on everything with no worries on calving ease, they are such sprightly calves’
