National Sheep
Improvement Program

Welcome to the NSIP Home Page!

We're pleased that you are interested in the National Sheep Improvement Program (NSIP). This site contains information about NSIP, our services and prices.

We specialize in computerized genetic selection of sheep based on performance. NSIP evaluates the genetic value through the use of Expected Progeny Difference (EPDs). Our business is calculating EPDs for sheep producers and breed associations, and helping producers use those EPDs to their best advantage.

NSIP collects performance data from purebred producers and provides them with across-flock EPDs, which is an industry standard for reliability, integrity, and accuracy. Breeders use these EPDs to guide their breeding selections and provide the best stock, trait by trait, to the commercial sheep industry and other purebred breeders.

NSIP also works closely with breed associations to insure that all the genetic information is carefully cross-checked and validated, so that these EPDs are the most accurate and reliable values possible.

NSIP protects the integrity of the data through independent backups and calculations. NSIP strives to provide the most reliable tool for genetic selection in sheep.

Feel free to E-mail, call, or fax us -- we offer the best, most advanced method of genetic selection. We'd like to help you with your flock. Let's talk about it.
