The introduction of the Standard further extends the chain of assurance to include AI, to provide producers with an unprecedented assurance that the semen delivered to their farms can be used with confidence, as it will have been produced to an AI Standard that is comparable to those in operation in the EU. Using assured AI is also an important part of achieving the BPEX 2TS target.
