EkoNiva Group has been engaged in pedigree cattle breeding since 2006. The enterprises in Voronezh, Kaluga, Moscow (Stupino town), Ryazan, Orenburg, Novosibirsk oblasts and the Republics of Bashkiria and Tatarstan hold the status of stock-breeding farms and breeding reproducers of cattle. The breeds propagated are Holstein, Simmental, Aberdeen Angus and Hereford. The herd consists of purebred Very Good and Good Plus cattle characterised by high genetic potential. The origin of the cattle is confirmed by genetic testing.

All the farming enterprises implement efficient livestock housing and herd management systems, employ state-of-the-art milking and health care technologies and use advanced software such as Selex and Dairy Comp 305 (VAS).

Milk production parameters are rapidly increasing every year, without affecting the cattle health. The average milk yield of Simmental cows at EkoNivaAgro has gone up to 8,821 kg per lactation, the milk yield of Black-and-White cows has increased to 11,813 kg and Red-and-White cows – 9,335 kg. The rolling herd average of Holstein cows in Sibirskaya Niva has grown to 11,773 kg of milk, at Kaluzhskaya Niva – 11,359 kg, at OKA MOLOKO – 12,499 kg, at Severnaya Niva Orenburg – 11,569 kg, at Severnaya Niva Bashkiria – 11,488 kg, at Severnaya Niva Tatarstan – 10,651 kg and at Stupinskaya Niva – 10,460 kg.

The company uses semen of breeding bulls of western genetics (Germany, Austria, the USA and Canada) for herd reproduction. In order to increase the breeding stock and accelerate the genetic progress of the herd, all enterprises holding the status of breeding reproducers and stock-breeding farms use semen of genomic bulls and sexed semen.
