Sexed Semen
Achieve an average of 90% gender accuracy with sexed semen.
The use of female sexed semen enables farmers to generate more heifer replacements from their best-performing animals. Meanwhile, farmers are free to generate more non-replacement animals from poorer performing animals, with potential to tap into the beef market.
We contract Sexing Technologies to sex-sort our top dairy and beef sires. Sexing Technologies uses state-of-the-art equipment and specialty media to ensure the best possible chances of conception.

Sexed semen provides farmers with an option to get more heifer replacements from their best cows.
Fresh Sexed Semen
We advocate the use of fresh sexed semen through our Premier Sires sexed semen teams as it delivers near-normal non return rates (NRR) – within 5 percent of our conventional Premier Sires products.
