The U.S. A.I. industry is different from many other nations, as the U.S. A.I. industry is largely self-regulated. The trade group responsible for monitoring the health testing of donor bulls of U.S. frozen semen for export is Certified Semen Services (CSS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NAAB. Through collaboration, CCS and the U.S. A.I. industry have developed an intricate, unique system of quality assurance protocols and coding structures. This ensures U.S. frozen semen is safe, healthy, fertile and of the highest genetic quality for dairy herd improvement worldwide.
