At AcuFast, we're committed to delivering realized genetic value, which is built on three critical pillars: our genetic portfolio, commercial measurement system, and technology platform. Today, we'll take a deeper look at our technology platform to discover how it drives progress.
Our technology platform is a diverse set of tools, systems, and programs that work together to bolster success.
Our reproductive technology platform is designed to deliver faster genetic progress to our producer partners. We've developed and continue to develop a comprehensive suite of tools that enable us to leverage the highest-value sires while protecting reproductive outcomes in both our own and partner herds.
Our investment in this area extends beyond tools to dedicated infrastructure supporting the development and delivery of superior reproductive solutions:
• Our reproductive labs, staffed by dedicated scientists and technicians, work in close collaboration with STgenetics experts to perfect techniques such as sex-sorted sperm and KaryoFlow. These technologies enable precise genetic selection and rapid multiplication of elite genetics.
• Multiple research farms dedicated primarily to in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer, along with laparoscopic artificial insemination capabilities, allow us to push the boundaries of reproductive efficiency. These facilities are complemented by dedicated boar studs providing high-quality, high-indexing semen to fuel genetic advancement.
This combination not only accelerates genetic progress but also ensures the superior genetics we develop are efficiently and reliably delivered to our partners' operations.
In concert with the work being performed by the reproductive team, there is also work and investment being made into our genetic technologies. Our business revolves around genetic technologies and innovations, which are organized into three core focuses:
