All ABS young bulls are DNA sampled and have been since 1996. We use Genomics to help determine which bulls enter the Cornerstone programme and to identify the best potential graduates. Our sister company PIC has more than 15 years of experience working in Genomics and jointly we have 20 Geneticists ensuring we stay at the cutting edge of technology. ABS are making a greater research investment in Genomics than any other AI company!
