Family ties deliver quality for Jersey breeders
BACKED by a quality and deep pedigree, bred for big milk, high type, positive components and the ability to add frame to a herd – Kaarmona Jeronimo Brady ET (CSCBRADY) is a Jersey bull set to shake-up the industry.
And it’s no surprise – he’s the descendant from a live import brought into the country in the early 1990s to expand the nation’s genetic pool and improve Jersey milk flow.
In other words – shake-up the industry.
Bred by Kaarmona Jerseys and Holsteins – the Australian dairy industry’s only stud with two Master Breeder awards for two breeds – CSCBRADY is progeny from the stud’s prolific and best performing Babe cow family.
At 445 Balanced Performance Index (BPI) and 953 on the Sustainability Index in the December Australian Breeding Value release the Central Sires Cooperative-owned bull is ticking plenty of boxes.
His dam, Kaarmona Invincible Babe 323 EX-91 (max) has topped Australia’s Jersey BPI genomic cow list, is a five star Jersey cow and with a recent upgrade to her classification, eight out of 10 generations of this family have been classified excellent.
Breeder Rohan Sprunt from Kaarmona said CSCBRADY is bred for production.
“His (CSCBRADY’S) mother and grandmother are such high milk cows and have high
components, both were over 4 per cent protein cows,” he said.
“Brady’s dam is running at 4.4 per cent protein year-to-date (in December 2023) on her second lactation and with a PI of 112 which puts her at the top of her age group in our herd.
“His Grandmother has a six lactation average PI of 112, so it’s easy to understand where Brady’s high productive genes come from.”
CSCBRADY’S grandmother Kaarmona Navarian Babe 243 Ex90 re-calved this spring as a nine-year-old cow.
