Will be discussing our AI, ET and IVF programing next week in Spencer!

Todd Taylor, University of Wisconsin, and Dr. Andrew Weaver, North Carolina State University, will offer an informative session, Reproductive Technologies for Genetic Improvement, as part of the free NSIP educational program on July 24 at the Clay County Fairgrounds 4-H Center in Spencer, Iowa. This session will explore the opportunity for reproductive technologies to accelerate genetic progress. Tools such as artificial insemination and embryo transfer can increase selection pressure and decrease generation interval, moving flocks closer to their goals.
