New Century 21 president foresees tougher AI competition
Ken Leick, elected president of 21st Century Genetics, says dairy termination and the spread of bovine growth hormone will intensify competition among AI cooperatives. He notes potential 30 percent cow-number drop in five years, calls for broader cooperative services and more cross-coop cooperation. He expects a 3–4 major U.S. AI groups and envisions more world markets, with frozen embryos on farm and expanded genetics pooling shaping the industry. Leick farms in Stratford, Wisconsin, with his brother and nephew, milking 195 Holsteins and owning 640 acres. Farm Progress Days were held at their farm in 1974.
