A Legacy of Premium Genetics
Bova AI was founded in 1985 by Owen S. O'Neill — a veterinary surgeon who had built an outstanding reputation for pedigree beef breeding. From that foundation, we have grown into the largest privately owned AI stud in Ireland.
Our technician network, established in 1991, now spans the country with over 45 skilled technicians. We house more than 25 bulls at our EU-approved stud in Limerick, covering the full breadth of elite beef and dairy breeds.
In recent years we have developed a strong international export trade to Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and throughout Europe — a testament to the quality of genetics our customers depend on.
