In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of embryo transfer in dairy farming. Joining us are Emma Poole, a Waikato-based vet and dairy farmer, and Andrew Donoghue, Regional Sales Manager for Australia and New Zealand at Vytelle, a global leader in precision livestock technology.

Together, Emma and Andrew unpack the science, strategy, and practical realities of embryo transfer. They explore selecting the right donor and recipient cows, managing expectations around calf size and health, and navigating the success rates of embryo programs. With insights into genetic selection, frozen embryo longevity, and future innovations, this episode is a must-listen for farmers curious about improving herd performance through reproductive technology.

Whether you're considering embryo work for the first time or looking to refine your current program, this conversation offers advice, real-world experience, and valuable resources to help you make informed decisions on-farm.
