RENNYLEA SEMEN SIRES 2018
We have added two young bulls for the 2018 year. There are seven bulls in total from older sires proven through the Angus Benchmarking program, including Rennylea G255 and H708. In addition there are four L and M bulls.
These Rennylea bulls have been selected for performance, elite market suitability and wonderful maternal value.
All these bulls have dams that are unique in the industry, are very fertile and functional with incredible carcase performance.
These bulls’ traits will make steady progress in the traits that drive profit in a beef business. Genertic improvement is cumulative and permanent.
Each year we enter bulls in the Angus Sire Progeny test. In 2017, G255 was confirmed as the superior carcase performance sire, topping the MSA index with a score of 65.5 in the 4th cohort of the Angus Sire Benchmarking program. In 2018, Rennylea H708 topped the carcase performance of Cohort 5 with the highest carcase intramuscular fat, the second highest MSA marble score and the highest MSA index in the group of 46 bulls.
