We are proud to launch the first Edition of the All Canada GenOvis Recognition Awards. This contest was done for the first time in 2019 only for Quebec breeders, but now it is time to extend it to All Canada GenOvis participants.

Recognition Awards – 2020 CANADA winners

This contest aims to recognize breeders who believe in the GenOvis genetic evaluation program and who actively contribute to its proper function.

Purebred Awards are determined based on a combination of five criteria:

  • Genetic Selection Index (20%)
  • Diffusion Rate (20%)
  • Evaluated Animal Percentage (20%)
  • Average Ram Age at Lambing (20%)
  • Number of Different Rams Used (20%)

The Productivity Award is determined by the ewes’ productivity.

For this first edition, the finalists within each category are the ones that ranked within the top 3 of the category, regardless of their location.
