Sire selection

Potential Norwegian Red (NRF) bull calves for progeny testing are sired by an elite sire and have a top ranked index mother.

 

Annually about 2 000 Norwegian Red bull calves are offered to Geno due to their outstanding index based on pedigree information. Geno buys around 400 of these calves. 10-12 of them end up as elite sires and become fathers of the next generation Norwegian Red calves.
