Solution remains great
Weinterper Solution (Finder x Guard, aAa 234, A2A2) remains of high value for farmers. His fourth calver daughters are very convincing. This proofrun 108 heifers from are added from the time he was daughter proven. This did not change his index very much. He is a real milk bull with positive components. Teats are slightly longer. Farmers love the Solutiondaughters for their maturity rate and the easy way they produce. The daughters get better every lactation and keep on increasing production.

Last proofrun Willem’s-Hoeve Steyr (Martin x Jetset, aAa 423, A2A2) and Eastland Force (Floris x Livington, aAa 243, A2A2) got the first daughter results in their proofs. Both indexes increase. Steyr is increasing in kgs milk and remains a very great balanced bull for the commercial dairy farmer. His daughters are very persistent and the udders are great. Force increases kgs of milk too and can be used on cows that are slow milkers.

VDR Shakespeare (Ranger x Malki, aAa 5136) has a very great proof. In November 2024 at the Holland Holstein Herds in Leeuwarden, his daughtergroup was very impressive. He is from two generations over 10.000 kgs fat and protein. The high level of maturity rate and longevity most probably comes from his cowfamily. His daughters also show rocket hard feet and legs. The legs are slightly sickled which make Shakespeare a great pick for cows with straight legs. He has a very great allround profile with many daughters in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Ireland. Shakespeare can be used on heifers.
Koepon Random Lr+ (Ranger x Board, aAa 234, A2A2) has very high reliability with his first daughters closing their third lactation. He still is the number 1 in the Netherlands for type. Random is an very allround bull with a higher milkingspeed.

De Paarlberg Andes Lr+ very useful
As a young bull De Paarlberg Andes Lr+ (Andy x Colorado, aAa 561) was in high demand. This was because of his great cowfamily and his interesting genomics profile.
