Since the farm was built in 2005, Coatzee has made significant changes to better the operation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over a year ago, pregnancy rates at Golden Dakota Farms were around 21% and Coatzee wanted to improve. The summer months were especially challenging, with pregnancy rates taking a massive hit every year.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking to improve herd reproduction, Coatzee made the switch to Genus ABS. After the switch to a double ovsynch program, pregnancy rates jumped by over 10 points into the low 30s. Even better, pregnancy rates held steady over the summer with the help of the Genus ABS team and high-quality semen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cWe switched to Genus ABS about a year and a half ago to implement a double ovsynch program but really we switched to ABS simply for their customer service. I believe they have the best bulls on the market and you know we have certain goals and traits that we want to implement into our cows and we&#8217;re seeing a lot of success now that we switch over to ABS it&#8217;s been really really nice to work with them.\u201d<\/p><cite>Donovan Coatzee<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>With support from ABS\u2019s technical services team, Donovan also decided to utilize ABS\u2019s sexed semen product to breed the next generation of high-quality heifers for Golden Dakota Dairy.
