CRV Ambreed offers AI Training Schools throughout New Zealand. Our trainers are experienced in all aspects of AI and provide training for both the DIY client as well as anyone who may be interested in joining our team of professional AI technicians.
BENEFITS OF AI TRAINING
DIY Technician: Savings
Based on a 300 cow herd, if you were to inseminate your own cows you would save approximately $1350 in the first year and $6750 within the first five years!
Greater choice and control
As a DIYer, you have the advantage of making breeding choices on the spot and can inseminate at a time that suits you and your farming practice. Refresher DIY training is also provided.
AI Technician: Supplement your income
Experienced AI technicians are always in demand. You may consider further training to join our team, which could earn you some extra cash through the mating season.

- Basic reproductive biology and heat detection
- Practical instruction on the insemination process with live cow inseminations
- Immediate feedback from experienced instructors on the accuracy of inseminations
- Discounted equipment required to inseminate your herd
