About us

Genus products and services offer the potential to improve profitability for farmer and food producing customers by enabling them to increase output of consistently high quality products with higher value.

Genus world class animal genetics are used in the section of the food chain producing quality foods and are the choice of leading farmers and food producers worldwide. They enable food producers and farmers to enhance milk and meat quality and improve efficiency through the application of genetic selection.

Genus' non genetically modified organism ("GMO") technology is applicable across all livestock species but is currently only commercialised by Genus in the bovine and porcine sectors.



Genus is a FTSE250 member of the London Stock Exchange and a global company selling in 70 countries and operating 30 countries. Genus' bovine business is the largest cattle breeding business in the world and Genus' porcine business is a world market leader with an estimated 100 million pigs produced each year containing Genus genetics.

Genus is in a unique position to benefit from changing world agricultural
markets given the growing world demand for milk, pork and beef together
with the increasing willingness of consumers globally to pay a premium
for meat or milk with a superior taste or pedigree.
