MORE INFO

Innovis was first established in 2004 as a spin-out company from Aberystwyth University. Initially set up to offer breeding services such as AI and ET throughout the UK and Ireland as well as delivering government contracts and customer-focused commercial.

By 2007, the focus changed and Innovis applied all of its technological expertise and experience to generate a selection of maternal and terminal composite sheep breeding lines that are suited to meet the individual needs and requirements of the modern sheep farmer.

RAM SALES

At Innovis, our goal is to breed rams that thrive on UK sheep farms.

All our rams are bred under challenge in forage based systems and performance recorded for genetic traits that leave profit in commercial flocks – such as ewe maternal ability, lamb growth, muscle and days to slaughter – future proofing your flock.

Our rams are bred to perform and reared to last.
