Did you know?
DPR – Daughter Pregnancy Rate evaluations utilize DHIA records to calculate the
calving interval for each lactation as a measure of fertility in cows.
The range for DPR is typically -3 to +3 with an average of around 0. For each 1 point
of DPR, the calving interval for daughters will be shortened by 4 days. e.g. +3 DPR
equals a 12 days shortened calving interval against the average. Higher DPR equals
Higher Fertility.

Oestrus Detectors shows when a cow is in standing heat.
The silver surface rubs off each time the cow is mounted.
The more of the bright signal color (blue, fuchsia, green,
orange or yellow) that is showing, the closer the cow is to
standing heat. No false readings!
Alta Chooses Conceptplus Above the Rest!
What sets Conceptplus apart from other evaluations?
1.	Accuracy
	 Adjusts the herd, year, and month of breeding along with
	 other environmental factors.
2.	Data Integrity
	 Data is gathered directly from all Alta Advantage
	 partner dairies. Every sire used in these herds is 
	 included in the fertility analysis in order to 
	 assure the data remains objective. 
Traditionally we gathered data from the Alta Advantage herds in the US to calculate 
Conceptplus evaluations. Now through the recent addition of our Alta Advantage 
program worldwide, Alta will gather additional fertility data from herds 
participating globally.
Conceptplus
fertility pays off in:
p	Higher milk
production
p	Reduced semen 
labor costs
p	Reduced
­replacement costs

“In spring 2014 we mated our 300 cow herd
and 70 maiden heifers with Alta’s Fasco
Labels. I found the colours bright and easy
to see once the cows had been mounted. The
thing that impressed me the most was the
retention rate. The Fasco labels stuck to long
and short hair making them easy to apply.
We will be using Alta’s Fasco labels again this
season.”

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.

DPR – Daughter Pregnancy Rate evaluations utilize DHIA records to calculate the calving interval for each lactation as a measure of fertility in cows. The range for DPR is typically -3 to +3 with an average of around 0. For each 1 point of DPR, the calving interval for daughters will be shortened by 4 days. e.g. +3 DPR equals a 12 days shortened calving interval against the average. Higher DPR equals Higher Fertility.

  • 9. Increase your livestock reproduction easily Simple + Reliable + Accurate Oestrus Detectors shows when a cow is in standing heat. The silver surface rubs off each time the cow is mounted. The more of the bright signal color (blue, fuchsia, green, orange or yellow) that is showing, the closer the cow is to standing heat. No false readings! Alta Chooses Conceptplus Above the Rest! What sets Conceptplus apart from other evaluations? 1. Accuracy Adjusts the herd, year, and month of breeding along with other environmental factors. 2. Data Integrity Data is gathered directly from all Alta Advantage partner dairies. Every sire used in these herds is  included in the fertility analysis in order to  assure the data remains objective.  Traditionally we gathered data from the Alta Advantage herds in the US to calculate  Conceptplus evaluations. Now through the recent addition of our Alta Advantage  program worldwide, Alta will gather additional fertility data from herds  participating globally. Conceptplus fertility pays off in: p Higher milk production p Reduced semen labor costs p Reduced ­replacement costs $1.60 +GST each “In spring 2014 we mated our 300 cow herd and 70 maiden heifers with Alta’s Fasco Labels. I found the colours bright and easy to see once the cows had been mounted. The thing that impressed me the most was the retention rate. The Fasco labels stuck to long and short hair making them easy to apply. We will be using Alta’s Fasco labels again this season.” Cameron Bawden Drouin, Gippsland, Australia Holstein Supplementary List A2/A2 Name NAAB code Pedigree NZ AB code Price Sexed Price Comments AltaR2 011HO10017 Marion x Ramos 112718 $7 An outcross pedigree with health and fertility AltaREGAL 011HO11138 Super x Shottle 113960 $7 High type +2.15 with positive components AltaTOYOTA 011HO10079 Toystory x Finley 111739 $10 High milk flow with quality udders AltaAVALON 011HO10360 Mac x Shottle 113983 $10 +2.30 Type and +2.15 UDC (12/14) AltaCARNIVAL 011HO11078 Trigger x Buckeye 113971 $7 Small statured cows with quality udders AltaGREATEST 011HO10928 Planet x Bolton 115748 $10 TPI leader 2338TPI (12/14) AltaRIC-Red 011HO00552 Mr Burns x Jordon Red 113981 $10 Wide, sloped rumped red sire with open frames Holstein Supplementary List All sires available at great value from $7 a straw A2 A2 A2 A2 Dairy Beef Semen Available at $7 a dose Holstein AltaIOTA $90 Farmer favourite, globally.

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.
