Beef Gene Ireland: Loughcrew Topgun (BB3070)

Autumn 2026 Terminal Index Panel: Loughcrew Topgun (BB3070) ‘Highest Terminal Index Bull on the panel’ - Just €8/straw! Gene Ireland is a joint initiative involving ICBF, pedigree breeders, commercial farmers, breed societies, AI companies and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM). The primary aim of the programme is to progeny test high-index beef bulls and identify sires with the potential to produce profitable animals for the Irish suckler beef industry. The main benefits are: · Access to the highest index new beef bulls in Irish AI at only €8 per straw (technician charges may apply). · Straws will be delivered to your own tank or the technician of your choosing. · Potential to sell some progeny back to ICBF for future performance testing at the Tully Beef Test Centre. · Progress towards meeting the requirements of suckler schemes. · Freedom to choose the bulls and breeds that you require from the catalogue. To order your straws log into your ICBF HerdPlus account or alternately call or email the HerdPlus office on 023 882 0452 / [email protected] and one of the team will assist you.
