• Highlighted by our A.I. Manager
• Quickly implemented at our studs
• Coefficient of variation of results – 15% - Colorimeter– 3% - SP100
Benefits
• We can offer customers more – Literally.• UK sireline semen dose @ 2.3 billion• Colorimeter 15% variation
– 2.64 and 1.95 • SP100 3% variation
– 2.36 and 2.23 • Raised the minimum sperm dose by
– ~ 300 million
