U.S. Livestock Genetics Exports, Inc.

U.S. Livestock Genetics Export, Inc. (USLGE) is a nonprofit, nationwide trade association that brings together a broad base of U.S. livestock organizations. We represent the international marketing interests of the dairy, beef, swine, horse, and small ruminant (sheep and goats) breeding industries. Our members also include the embryo and semen industries, livestock export sector, and State Departments of Agriculture.

USLGE members match international producers with sources in the United States that offer genetics with superior credentials. The combined resources of USLGE members include most major species and breeds — resources that are unmatched by any other single organization. This unique broad-based team offers more sources for superior performance-oriented genetics than any other group in the world. USLGE works as a one-stop center to make the genetic selection process easier, more efficient, and more productive.
