Neogen Corporation Debuts the 'Igenity Enhanced Dairy' Tool
Neogen Corporation has unveiled a groundbreaking addition to its portfolio: 'Igenity® Enhanced Dairy.' 'Igenity Enhanced Dairy' is a digital enabler, providing dairy producers with enhanced capacities to refine their selection and mating strategies.
Functioning as a convergence point, this platform seamlessly amalgamates in-herd phenotypic data, lineage particulars, and predicted transmitting abilities (PTAs) sourced from the esteemed Council on Dairy Cattle Breeding (CDCB). This orchestrated fusion results in the comprehensive genomic evaluation of dairy cattle, thereby assisting in successful mating rounds.
"[...] Data plays a crucial role in decision-making, and the Igenity Enhanced Dairy platform allows producers to take an additional step forward. The traditional genetic evaluations provided by the CDCB have significantly enhanced the genetic progress of several economically valuable traits. Now, with Igenity Enhanced Dairy, we are enabling an extra gain in the dairy selection process," said Dr. Vitor Pedrosa, Neogen's Director of Genetic Prediction.
