NAEBA A.I. Certified Sires Program
The North American Elk Breeders Association implemented a level of certification for artificial insemination sires used in the industry. In response to the increase of breeding stock markets and participation of A.I. programs, NAEBA is offering this option to members to apply for this status. There is a list of criteria applicants must comply with in order to obtain certified status for their specific A.I. sire.The purpose of certifying members' A.I. sires is to ensure any person that obtains semen from that bull has certain levels of assurance. Certified A.I. sires are NAEBA registered with a DNA profile. This would let members know that their calves can be registered and DNA matched to the A.I. sire. There have been scenarios over the years where members have purchased semen and have subsequently not been able to register their calves because the bull was not registered or did not have DNA on file.
At least once a year, NAEBA will publish a list of the Certified A.I. Sires. There is a $25 charge for members to apply for this status. Bulls can posthumously be awarded this status.
