Progressive producers requested a better way to rank sires that would create cows that excel in commercial
conditions. In response, GENEX introduced the Ideal Commercial Cow™ (ICC$™) index for Holsteins in August 2014 and later added the ICC$™ index for Jerseys. While enhanced over time, this global index remains economic based, real-time and flexible. It utilizes data-driven genetic evaluations and research from multiple sources, so you can capitalize on the genetic potential of your cows. Why utilize the ICC$™ index? Here’s what others have said about the index and the type of cow it creates:

The ICC$™ index is different...
It is designed to build the cow of the future.
Includes data from multiple sources for a more robust index.
The first index to truly merge the idea of maximizing efficient yield.
Directly tied to economics.
The only index that selects exclusively for cows that are going to thrive in commercial and progressive environments.
Emphasis on measurable performance makes
the ICC$™ index a superior index.
