31 Maximize Genetic Progress in the direction of your goals What are your genetic goals? If your milk is shipped to a cheese plant, you should be able to select sires that will increase protein and fat yield. If you live in an extreme climate, the genetics you choose should promote maximum health of your herd to withstand that environment. And if you re looking to expand your operation, you should be able to pick genetics to create as many pregnancies as possible. You decide on the right plan The sires on top of the industry standard lists aren t always your best choices. Your market dynamics, location, and situations vary, meaning your genetic plan should match your circumstances in order to meet your goals. Put your plan in motion with AltaGPS p Work with your Alta rep to set your own customized genetic plan using Alta s Genetic Plan and Strategy (GPS) program. p Place emphasis only on the genetic traits that will maximize profit on your dairy. p Use a group of sires that meet your customized criteria to ensure confidence and reliability. p Measure your results by tracking genetic progress and ranking females in your herd. Genetics Matter Put your customized genetic plan in place today to drive genetic progress and maximize profit on your dairy. 31
