VikingGenetics – Innovative Breeding
At VikingGenetics, we help feed the world’s expanding population and sustain the earth’s natural resources by breeding healthy, efficient, trouble-free cows.
We provide science-based cattle genetic solutions for progressive dairy and beef producers innovating for the future of dairy farming.
Future-friendly Farming
Sustainability is the future. The world needs farmers’ licence to produce, yet scrutiny on dairy production and cows is greater than ever.
Farmers do a tough but crucial job - helping feed the world’s growing population and protect natural resources.
With our future-friendly breeding solutions, our mission is to help farmers achieve business goals, farm sustainably, and enjoy life.
A Co-operative Legacy
VikingGenetics isn't just a company. It’s a partnership of over 17,000 dairy and beef farmers from Denmark, Sweden, and Finland, collaborating to breed healthy, profitable cows.
Our latest challenge is to develop solutions for breeding more sustainable, feed-efficient cows.
We focus on genetic progress, animal welfare, food security, and improving the sustainability of our production chain with each generation of cows.
A stellar breed lineup
In the Nordic countries, we have recorded cows’ health and performance for over 40 years. Our big data and science-driven genetics are tailored to give you cows built for dairy success.
VikingHolstein – Healthy, efficient cows
Meet our resilient, medium-sized VikingHolsteins. Known for their efficient production of milk rich in components, these cows are easy to manage and long-lasting.
VikingRed – Healthy, trouble-free cows
Naturally healthy, fertile, and profitable - that’s VikingRed. These cows have the highest milk and solids production for red cows and are an excellent choice for crossbreeding.
VikingJersey – Healthy, profitable cows
Our VikingJerseys redefine profitability. These purebred, medium-sized cows produce milk with the highest fat and protein levels. They are also easy to manage and long-lasting.
VikingGoldenCross – Fertile grazing cows
Imagine cows with a higher conception rate, lifetime production, and less trouble – that’s VikingGoldenCross. This 3-breed crossbreeding programme combines VikingHolstein, VikingRed, and VikingJersey to breed healthy, fertile grazing cows.
ProCROSS – Proven crossbred cows
Designed for intensive production, ProCROSS combines VikingHolstein, VikingRed, and Coopex Montbéliarde. This 3-breed rotational crossbreeding system ensures healthy, fertile, and feed-efficient cows with 9% extra daily profits.
