Bomaz Oman KRAMER is a new Oman son with a cracking balance of production, type and management traits. He offers more milk than many Oman sons but without compromising on milk quality, as he is positive for fat percent and has just a small minus on protein. He is a useful bull for breeding long-lasting cows as he is +0.3 Lifespan, -11 cell count, a low –2.1 fertility and calving ease. His type profile shows that he breeds strong cows with a little more dairyness than some Oman sons, fantastic feet and well attached fore udders that are quite shallow for his production levels. He has an interesting pedigree of the ever-popular O-Bee Manfred Justice out of a Lexvold Luke Hershel dam. His dam is a full sister to the successful Bomaz Homestead (2.6 type) and her half sister is dam to Merchant son Mercantile (1.99 type).
