We have now completed our first year of business and have enjoyed the success that has come with it. Along with this success we’ve seen numbers in the donor barn continue to swell.

With more donors comes more data, and with more data comes more opportunities to inform and educate. We occasionally present case studies to outline the embryo production costs of each donor, whether it be the donors with their own historical scenario, or the incorporation of all the different scenarios that are available through the technologies the Boviteq Wests IVF business presents. As always, cost is critical and we believe we do provide an attractive embryo production cost that customers are pleasantly surprised and encouraged by.

Put the facts about cost alongside having the opportunity to either start embryo production earlier in life than other processes or to continue embryo production from a donor where it seemed the opportunities to produce future offspring had ended, IVF is a business option that makes sense. Furthermore, IVF allows for increased production through shorter time spans between collections.

The diversity in the barn is a reflection that the word is getting to so many areas of the genetic industry: high genomics, deep pedigrees, and pregnant beef and dairy donors all making use of the advantages that the IVF process can bring to a genetic business plan.

If you have high-value animals that fit into any one of these categories make sure you take the opportunity to obtain all the facts about IVF versus conventional embryo production costs.
