STtalks #313 - August 2025 Genetic Evaluations with Daniel Carroll, David Kendall & Tim Rauen

Proof news is here! Following the very successful August 2025 Genetic Evaluations, we had a lot to catch up on and learn. In this STtalks, we get a brief overview of the changes made to the calving traits as well as the release of CDCB’s Milk Speed Trait and how we can look at this in comparison to STgenetics® Robotic Cow Index. Additionally, we dive into the deep lineup of Proven sires, highlighted with a new #1 TPI Sire in GARZA as well as the impact of CAPTAIN throughout the list. We learn about a new group of Slick bulls, the Legend™ Program, about the exciting lineup of young bulls and how a plan and vision put together 5 years ago is really paying off today.00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:45 Overview of 2025 Genetic Evaluations 02:14 Robotic Cow Index (RCI) vs. Milking Speed Trait 04:38 Highlighting the Proven Sire List 06:29 CAPTAIN's Legacy and His Sons 09:57 Exciting New Proven Sires 17:21 New Slick Bulls and Their Impact 19:55 Young Genomic Sires and Future Prospects 23:03 The Legend™ Program and STyle Genetics™ 27:14 Conclusion and Final Thoughts
