The University of Missouri Division of Animal Sciences (part of the College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources) and the College of Veterinary Medicine are partnering to launch the National Center for Applied Reproduction and Genomics (NCARG) in Beef Cattle.

A goal of NCARG will be to evaluate and promote the economic impact of the technologies Mizzou animal sciences faculty have developed and are using every day. The focus is on giving farmers and ranchers the answer to the question – “What is the return if I invest in reproductive or genomic technologies?”

NCARG will be both a physical facility for hands-on education, and also an intellectual center for online courses and basic and applied research.
