Each X-Vik dose is tailor-made to individual bull’s semen quality. With good herd management your fertility results with sexed semen can equal or exceed conventional results.
We have always placed health in balanced focus along with production traits in our breeding programmes. Not only do you get a sexed semen straw, but you also get genetics to achieve a healthy, efficient and sustainable herd.
High-quality X-Vik sexed genetics is available for a wide selection of high genetic merit bulls for:
We also offer a good selection of Beef on dairy sires. With Y-Vik beef sexed semen, you have a 90% chance of a bull calf.
From production to sorting, processing, shipment, insemination and reproduction performance in the field - we follow the performance closely and adjust whenever needed.
The production of sexed semen happens at the VikingGenetics bull station in Denmark. The lab is next door to the barn, which allows our staff to perform the highest quality control.
Our lab performs a wide range of semen quality analyses for each batch produced with the goal of providing you with the semen dose with optimal field performance. Some analyses that we perform:
- progressive and total motility
- concentration
- vitality
- morphology
For evaluations we use the newest technologies such as flow cytometers (concentration and viability) and CASA technology (progressive and total motility). Only the best doses fulfilling strict quality criteria are released for distribution.
Unique quality standards
Our quality standards were set as a result of one of the largest insemination trials in the world, where semen quality parameters were correlated to field fertility results obtained from nearly 200,000 inseminations.
With X-Vik sexed semen you ensure the best reproduction performance in your herd.
