Going Global-the story keeps getting better...and better!

Well, we thought there was only so much a ten day period could offer up with regard to international Jersey movement impacting Jersey Canada! We now know there is a deepening sea of good things to report!

Late last week we were told by one of our keen Canadian Jersey owners and marketers that they had received some great Jersey news from Australia! The Canadians had sent a shipment of embryos from a selection of their top cow families to an associates in Australia. Results? 17 pregnancies on the way! This represented a VERY high percentage pregnancy rate on embryos in the shipment!


Then, just yesterday, Sunday, an e-mail came through from Australia from another party who reported that they had 19 embryo transfer calves on the ground from embryos representing six matings "made in Canada". They were so excited by these calves and to have them in their herd!


There is no question that potential to expand markets for Jersey genetics around the globe is virtually unlimited! VIRTUALLY UNLIMITED!
