Precision Livestock & Sex-Sorted Semen
The livestock industry in 2026 is driven by the "Accelerated Breed Improvement Programme." The goal is to maximize food production while reducing "animal wastage."
Gender Choice: Farmers now use Sex-Sorted Semen with over 90% accuracy. Dairy farms produce almost exclusively female calves (for milk), while beef farms prioritize males (for meat growth).
Genetic Merit: By 2026, semen stations use Genomic Selection. This means the bull's DNA is analyzed at birth to predict his offspring's health, milk yield, and even "climate resilience" before he is ever used for breeding.
Sustainable Farming: By ensuring only the desired gender and the healthiest animals are born, farms reduce their carbon footprint and resource waste, making the 2026 dairy and meat industries more environmentally friendly.
