What’s YOUR next step?

Contact your All West Representative and set up a complimentary Optimal Genetic Pathways Calculator (OGP) evaluation at your dairy! This yearly analysis also comes with value-added, quarterly adjustments for seasonal effects and reflection on previous month’s performances.

You know the questions…

• How many replacements do I need?
• Do I need to use beef semen?
• Which animals should I breed with sexed semen?
• Should I be using embryos?
• What if I want to expand?

“The Optimal Genetic Pathways calculator takes the eligible breeding population and allows the producer to strategically utilize the best genetics.  It determines the most profitable combinations of semen usage, including sexed, conventional, embryos, and/or beef, while making the number of  females needed to maintain the desired cow numbers. There has been a real need in the industry for a tool like this and our customers have had great success using this calculator to project profitable solutions.”
