AbacusBio genetic consultants will work with you to design cost-effective breeding programmes which are practical to implement. We work in the livestock and aquaculture industries and with plant businesses, with international and New Zealand clients. We focus on achieving high rates of genetic progress, with the right trait weightings for your operation, while managing inbreeding and allocating different genetic types to their most suitable production systems. We are active in:

• the development and implementation of vertically integrated breeding programmes for aquacultural businesses
• the development of software for genetic improvement (e.g. managing relatedness due to inbreeding)
• consultancy on optimal breeding scheme design and operation for commercial breeding organisations
• we have developed specialised packages for sheep breeding. For more information, check out Abacus Accelerator.
