Innovis can work for you

Maternal Lines

Our Maternal rams are selected on both maternal and carcass traits to enable you to produce efficient crossbred ewes as well as fast growing finished lambs. With a growing market for Innovis crossbred ewes as part of the supply network supported by Innovis.

Terminal Sires

Our terminal rams are bred to produce top quality fat lambs bred off grass based systems. Our meat sire rams are proving to be popular with commercial sheep breeders who want to optimise their finished lamb production.

 

Focus Genetics Breeds

Along with our own breeding programmes, we have forged a partnership with Focus Genetics, to become the sole UK distributor of their Highlander maternal and Primera terminal sire breeds.
