Genomic selection ensures breeding values can be calculated with an even greater accuracy, which has a positive contribution on genetic gain. DanBred conducts DNA testing on all breeding animals, resulting in an increase of 30 % in genetic gain – a benefit that is available for everyone who uses DanBred genetics in their production.
