ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION CENTRE
COFA STUD HISTORY Cofa, as an AI organization, has been active in the Italian AI world, thanks to its president, Arturo Casali, since 1974. Casali first as an importer, importing high quality genetics from the U.S.A. and later in 1985, as the promotor, investor and manager of an AI stud, is a well known figure in the Italian bovine industry. His Stud, situated in the large PO valley, in the northen part of Italy, first has produced a high quality line of Holstein sires but soon after has become reknown through its outstanding Mediterranean buffalos. The Water Buffalo with its enormous world population and its, up to now, small genetic development seemed to COFA an excellent opportunity to apply its knowhow, aquired in years of work with the bovine spicies, a great challange to improve the genetic ability of the buffalo spieces and a good opportunity to develop a new mar- ket. To work on this task COFA had the advantage to find in Italy one of the more productive breed in the water buffalo population and a breeder association that had develop the tools for a seriuous work of genetic evaluation and progress.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN As a Centre for Artificial Insemination in the two species, bovine and buffalo, we are pleased to inform you that we have semen available from some bulls that are on progeny test program of the Italian population of the Mediterranean water buffalo breed . We want to inform you that the Italian Government since 1967 has given the duty to the Italian Breeder’s Association ( A.I.A) to carry out the milk recording in all species according to the International Agreement of I.C.A.R. all over the Italian Territory. The Provincial Breeder’s Association (A.P.A) organizes the collection of the milk data and their transfer to the Computing Centre of A.I.A where they are processed Typical italian mediterranean water buffala and sent to the Associations of From Az. Agr. Borromeo - Caffi Grumello CR/SE Italy each spice and breed ,where it is calculated the genetic index. ANASB is the Association of Buffalo, located in the South of Italy, where the breeders have selected subject to ETTORE IT065800812386 from Bellelli Farm, Salerno Italy. an increasing of production and quality of milk ,with an average of 2600 Typical italian mediterranean water buffalo kilograms, 8.30 % of fat and 4,73 % of protein . We are working with the Consortium C.I.P.A.B for the progeny test program, which lists more than 90 buffalo breeders in its organization. Find with our catalogue the genetic index that includes the following information: Milk, fat and protein yield in kilograms Fat and protein percentages and estimated mozzarella yield in kilogram. We at Co.F.A will be glad to assist you in your genetic Program through Artificial Insemination with our group of researchers, see the web site of:
