“The class exceeded my expectations! I
think the hands-on of the repro tracts was very helpful to learning
about the anatomy of the cow. Jon was a great teacher throughout the
course. He was able to answer all questions and concerns. He was calm
and able to guide us during the cow lab and able to keep students calm
and confident.”
—Jacob Davenport,
KSU student,
Manhattan, KS

“Being able to see and work with the
reproductive tract on the lab table was very, very beneficial. The heat
detection and synch time was very well spent. This class met all my
expectations and then some. I accomplished what I came here to learn,
AI’ing my cows. I feel very confident going back to my ranch
and picking up where I left off here.”
—Randy Neufeld,
Diamond N Ranch,
Seminole, TX

“This is a very nice facility and Jon
is a very good instructor.”

“With
the hands-on cow work having a small class
is a huge benefit. Two days was enough time. Physically being in the
cows much
longer would be tiring. Excellent program all the way around. Jon was
great. He
could see if you were struggling and helped a lot.”

“Before coming to Agtech I was told by many that AI was simple and spending the time and money to come to Agtech was not necessary. It is not difficult, however the techniques taught here and the assistance when you are not quite getting where you need to be is Great. Practice and knowing you have correct placement is key. Very well worth the expense! I was not disappointed.”
-Marni Brauker Union City, MI

“I wouldn't change a thing. I think that if the class was any longer it would get too drawn out. Having it in just 2 days kept us busy with little down time. Jon was a great Teacher!”
