HOLSim breeding program launched

The Holstein Association USA and American Simmental Association have formed a new branded program for dairy beef.

The HOLSim program identifies SimAngus bulls which have traits ideal for dairy farmers wanting to breed some of their herd to beef.

Holstein Association CEO John Meyer says the program has the potential to change the beef-on-dairy dynamic, allow dairy producers to raise more profitable offspring and create new marking avenues for beef seedstock.

All animals must have a Registered Holstein® dam and be bred to SimAngus bulls to participate.
