[QUOTE="Andyva, post: 1120155, member: 1022"] Could someone please explain the concept of AI certificates to me? I'm a lifelong cattle producer but on the commercial end, looking into purebreds. Wondering why they don't just require a spent straw taped to the application for registry, charge more for the semen and call it a day. I can understand that semen producers want to price it to where commercial people will buy and use it, but if you want to register something out of their pretty bull and your scrub cow, you have to pay for that privilege. My main question is, do you buy the certificates at the same time you get semen, and just base it on how many live calves you think you will get and want to register? Or, could you buy the semen and wait till calves were on the ground and then buy the certificates? [/QUOTE]
