Cattle DNA Testing: Your Roadmap to a Better Herd

Since the first genomic tests for dairy cattle became available, the ability to make selection decisions based on an animal’s genetic merit has helped improve dairy herds and drive revenue for producers. Igenity® helps dairy producers identify the best breeding strategy for every female in their herd, resulting in a roadmap for long term genetic improvement.

Backed by the official Council on Dairy Cattle Breeding (CDCB) evaluation, Igenity Select offers a full genetic profile for traits related to herd performance and profit.

While enhancing production capabilities, LD$ is formulated to emphasize health, fertility, and longevity traits, optimizing economic success. Using LD$ to select and breed Holstein cattle drives improvement across all the key areas that determine profitability.  Bring more value to each animal by implementing LD$ into your breeding and selection decisions.

Semex’s Immunity Technology provides an index to measure and improve herd health. Cows respond more effectively to vaccines, produce higher quality colostrum, show improved fertility, and experience fewer diseases—resulting in greater profitability per cow.

Strategic decisions powered by Igenity build the genetics that lead to:
