I am pleased to introduce the new Genomic Super sampler brochure from Cogent. We strongly believe here at Cogent that we have some of the best, most suitable bulls for all UK systems and that is why we have made this group of bulls available alongside our proven line-up. Cogent are purchasing genetics from the best cow families in the world, bringing you international pedigrees from some of the best cows from the UK and the world.
Having genomically tested all of the bulls prior to purchasing them, we have ensured that we select the very best to enter the Visions program. Once the bulls have been progeny tested we then highlight the top 10% which will be sold in this Super Sampler range. The bulls included in this catalogue have all been progeny tested on a random selection of farms throughout the UK and Northern Ireland through the Visions young sire programme meaning these bulls are on course to get a full proof in approximately 3 years time.
