Coming SOon! DSANA Semen Bank for dairy sheep producers
DSANA will soon launch a partnership with Reproductive Specialty Group (RSG) in Indiana, U.S., to allow for the storage of frozen semen from dairy rams with excellent genetics. This "semen bank" at RSG, which is a USDA-certified facility, will be open to American, Canadian, and Mexican dairy sheep producers who would like to store semen and/or buy semen. Watch for a formal announcement soon!
Genetic Evaluation Program
The DSANA Genetic Evaluation Program (GEP) provides dairy sheep producers with a standardized means for evaluating and selecting replacement animals within flocks, and gives those who purchase and sell replacement ewes and rams a reliable source of information on the estimated genetic impact of those replacements within their flocks.
The Dairy Sheep Association of North America is run entirely by volunteers from across the U.S. and Canada. Get to know more about DSANA!
