Join the breeding progress at Danish Genetics
With Danish Genetics Nucleus Management – DGNM – you will become part of the breeding progress at Danish Genetics. Such an agreement will help you select the best breeding animals as you will have access to more data on your herd. Based on these data you will be able to select the best animals for your future breeding.
Besides the obvious breeding gains, a DGNM agreement has other advantages. It will be possible to close your herd for the purchase of breeding animals and thereby reduce the risk of contamination. But our agreement still allows you to maintain a professional nucleus making sure your animals maintain their index.
