The Program:
Enroll the AI Bull with NAPA.
Establish a commercial price for semen from the bull,
and establish a Semen Certificate Price for the same
bull.
Instruct semen purchasers that
there is a Semen Certificate Fee required before any
offspring from the bull will be eligible for registry
or recordation. (For semen sold prior to enrolling a
bull in the Certificate Program, bull owners should
contact previous buyers to arrange for them to receive
complimentary Certificates. See the Sire
Enrollment Form)
Semen purchasers must pay the
bull owner the Semen Certificate Fee for enrolled bulls
- and will receive a signed Certificate from the bull
owner - in order for offspring to be papered.
No offspring from an enrolled bull will be registered
or recorded without the Semen Certificate, signed by
the bull owner, which must be attached to the application
to register/record the animal from the animal owner.
Bull owners will not sign the Semen Certificate unless
they receive the Certificate fee from the semen purchaser.
It is the bull owners responsibility to print off the
Semen Certificate, sign it, and provide it to the
semen purchaser once the fee is paid.
NAPA will maintain an on-line list of all enrolled
sires, the date they were enrolled, the current owner's
contact information and the Semen Certificate price.
Semen Certificates are available
to print off HERE.
