Animal breeding has been part of agriculture for thousands of years. By observing animals, farmers - and later scientists - have been able to continually produce healthier and productive animals.
By using our deep knowledge and care for the animal, along with innovative tools and technologies, Genus R&D’s focus on addressing animal diseases and acceleration of the genetic gain will continue to help improve animal welfare, and provide meat and milk with less impact on the environment and a better nutritional profile.
