Ki Kampen

K.I. Kampen is a Dutch genetic association established 40 years ago by farmers. The company mainly is aimed at durability as a result of high lifetime productions and protein. Later functional traits like udder health, fertility and hoof health had our attention in the young bull selection. These traits will become more and more important in the years to come. K.I. Kampen’s selection criteria have been the same for 40 years now. We only added a genomic test in the selection criteria to avoid disastrous defects. From the start the goal was to breed the long lasting dairy cow that will give the optimum contribution to farm profit. That has given us a good market position in The Netherlands right now.
