The costs involved are NZ$20 per cow for drugs and $10-$25 per cow for insemination depending on numbers (exclusive of semen). This total of $30-$45 per cow equates to the value of half the velvet income from a spiker or little over a 24 pack of Budweiser!

Then the Benefits:

Introduction of new bloodlines without having to buy an expensive Bull. 

Use of elite sires 

No TB risk 

Use of you're own Bull over large numbers of cows
