R&D Solutions for Goose

The special properties of meat and down-feathers from the goose are well known worldwide, making the goose an economically important farm animal. As a company focused on animal health and animal-related research and development, BioVenic is pleased to share our advanced technology and extensive experience in this field to help our customers break through their research bottlenecks in goose-related research. Our exceptional scientists can provide our customers with goose breeding and genetic research services, goose health and drug development services, and goose nutrition and feed development services.

The Value and Challenges of Goose Industry

As a popular waterfowl species, geese are widely raised for their meat, eggs, feathers, liver, and other by-products. The goose industry has created a very substantial economic value in the past two decades. However, the low reproductive performance and egg quality of geese have seriously hindered the development of the goose breeding industry. Hence, more efforts need to be invested in the field of goose breeding and reproduction. The rapid development of modern molecular breeding technologies such as DNA recombination, gene editing, and assisted reproductive technologies has made breakthroughs in goose breeding and genetics research. In addition, intensive goose breeding has caused great suffering to geese, so more attention should be invested in improving goose nutrition and welfare.
