nProve makes it easier to find the best genetics for your farming operation.
Over 80 percent of your flock or herd’s genetics are contributed by the sire, so you make a key decision every year – one that gives you an exciting opportunity to improve your animals’ performance. Let nProve help you make the best choice with ease.
nProve is a multi-species tool, updated monthly, that allows farmers to easily search for ram and bull options on one platform. Using a series of buttons and slider scales, you can customise what you are looking for in your bull or ram team. Then, with a simple click of a button, nProve generates a list of breeders, who rank highly in the traits important to you.
The tool is available at nprove.nz
