Embryo Export Centre
GRS is an AQIS accredited embryo export centre. We undergo a regular audit by AQIS authorities and maintain facilities to a standard as required by the OIE world standards. This accreditation allows us to send embryos to many countries around the world and we have up to 50 donors of different breeds on the centre at any time, collecting embryos for export. Due to the wide range of breeds represented we are able to produce embryos on a customized basis for specific markets.
GRS has also been specially accredited to produce embryos for export to China. We are regularly visited by officials from the Chinese AQSIQ and have over the last 5 years produced many embryos that have been sent to China.
GRS is also an accredited EU embryo export centre. We are able to produce embryos for all countries within the EU group and this has been a growing market over time.
Due to the different requirements of individual countries, GRS has a number of separate areas’ within the overall export facility. Donors are kept in areas’ to ensure compliance with various protocols and this means we need to keep a high level of attention on what we are doing. The export of genetics across the world is an exciting industry to be in and it is very pleasing to see the results of our embryo exports appearing in the show rings and sales catalogues throughout the world.
About Us
GRS is owned and run by Dom and Jo-anne Bayard. We both have a lifetime of experience with cattle having both grown up on dairy farms and continued in the beef and dairy industries since finishing education. We own and run our own Wagyu and Mont Beliarde cattle herds and understand the highs and lows of being cattle breeders. We empathise with and understand cattle breeders, and this gives our clients peace of mind knowing their valuable donors are being cared for 24/7 by experienced operators.
