GENEX is a cooperative that provides cattle genetics and reproductive solutions to farmers and ranchers. It sells semen and embryos from genetically superior sires and offers related services such as reproductive consulting, artificial insemination training, and herd management products, creating a full suite of genetic and reproductive options for beef and dairy herds. The company’s products work by using top-quality genetics through semen and embryo sales complemented by hands-on services that support breeding programs and herd performance. Unlike many suppliers, GENEX is owned and governed by its farmer-members, aligning its activities with member needs and enabling a portion of profits to be returned to members. Its goal is to improve herd efficiency and profitability by focusing on economically important traits like milk production, feed efficiency, and disease resistance while expanding access to these genetics globally.
