Semex is pleased to announce the launch of a revolutionary index specifically designed to match the needs and pace of today’s ever-changing dairy industry.

“Dairymen worldwide are looking at ways to increase profitability while adding flexibility to their lifestyle, and many of them are choosing robotic milking systems as their solution,” says Brad Sayles, Semex Alliance Vice President, Global Marketing. “We’ve identified the need to produce cows that are suited for these systems as an essential requirement for our clients that are either already utilizing, or are considering implementing, automatic robotic technologies on their dairies.”  

To accomplish this goal, Semex’s senior geneticists have created an index that identifies code 200 bulls that will sire daughters possessing traits that are profitable in automated environments. Animal productivity, disease resistance and also the functional type traits that are highly correlated to milking ease are all considered in this index.

“Semex’s Robot Ready™ sires will help dairymen make breeding profitable cows in automated, robotic dairies easy,” comments Sayles. “Semex continues to lead the industry by creating the genetic solutions that lead to real profit on the dairy. More than ever, dairymen worldwide are trusting Semex to provide them with profitable genetics strategies for their dairies.”

Robot Ready™ sires are available exclusively from Semex’s Holstein and Jersey lineups and are designated with the “Robot Ready™” logo in all Semex materials and are identified below:
