CRV CREATE - FAQ

• How do I enroll?

To enroll, please contact CRV directly and we will follow up with you.

• Who is my Genetic Consultant?

You can either contact CRV directly or find your consultant here.

• What breeds are offered in the CRV CREATE program?

CRV offers sires of sons in both Holstein and Jersey through the CREATE program. Availability of each sire will be limited due to availability and production.

• How often are CREATE sires released? How long will they be in the program?

New CREATE sires are released, updated and evaluated with each proof run as units are available. They will be in the program as long as CRV designates them as a CREATE sire.

• Why does CRV require a signed agreement for this program?

CRV requires a signed agreement for access to CREATE sires because these animals represent the future of their respective breeds and are typically reserved for developing the next generation of sires. By participating in the CREATE program, you gain exclusive early access to these elite genetics before full commercial release, while agreeing to terms that ensure responsible use—creating a mutually beneficial partnership for both you and CRV.

• Which sires are in the CRV CREATE program, and where can I find this information?

All sires in the CREATE program are designated so in our catalogs, and on our Sire Directory.

• What restrictions are set on units, embryos, and offspring? What other restrictions are there?

Details related to semen, embryos, and offspring are spelled out in the CREATE agreement. Once you have met with your Genetic Consultant, the agreement is sent for you to review.

• How do I genomic test the offspring and what are the costs?

This is different for each herd, and for males and females. If it is a female, work with your Genetic Consultant to get her tested. If it is a male, please email us at create@crv4all.com and a member of our product development team will work with you. Additional details are in your stated in your CREATE agreement.

• Once enrolled in the CREATE program, am I guaranteed to get semen on the CREATE sires that I want?

Access to your selected CREATE sires just got one step easier, but it is still limited upon the bulls availability to produce the necessary units. You are granted our highest access level and will work with you when units are available. Your Genetic Consultant will work with you and coordinate with CRV's production teams to keep you informed.

• How long is the duration of the CREATE program?

The duration of the agreement is stated in your contract. It starts on the day you sign the agreement, and if you or CRV decide to end the agreement, then the duration of the agreement is until the last calf is born from the units purchased while the bull was enrolled in CREATE.

• How much will I pay per unit of semen?

Pricing is determined around demand and availability. Your Genetic Consultant will be best suited to answer this question.

• How will I get the semen?

Your Genetic Consultant will be able to work with you. Depending on your situation it may be shipped directly from distribution, or your representative may drop it off. Each situation is different, and we will work with you to make sure you are aware of your orders status, and you receive it in a timely fashion.
