If this program waits until June or July collection will be questionable. Their will be a 30 day Quarantine period for, that will push the time into a period when stallions will be producing lower numbers of sperm. This will increase the costs, production of frozen semen is based on the sperm count. In some cases it may reduce the sperm numbers to an unacceptable level. So it may already be too late for Export in 2008. Stallions collection is seasonal. If this program waits until June or July collection will be questionable.

We used select breeders in Texas. Our stallion was there for about a month and we have over 100 doses of semen which we can ship to all the countries that are approved by the ApHC including the new ones Brazil, Austrailia and NZ. You could stay there for a shorter time I believe, but we wanted 100 doses.

The other thing to keep in mind is that various countries have different requirements for biosecurity measures and protocols, and what may be frozen in accordance to one country is most likely not acceptable in another country, even if the countries are close by and very similar (i.e., Australia and New Zealand).
