Hereford Adds Genomics The Hereford breed has added genomics to their sire evaluation and are the first beef breed to develop and market their own genomic predictions. All of the Select Sires Hereford bulls now have a 50K genotype incorporated into their EPDs. Pay particular attention to 7HP105 Durango, who gained 8 lbs. for WW and 13 lbs. for YW since spring, and 7HP104 Ultra, who moved from 80 to 87 for YW with additional progeny yearling weight records.

Red Angus and Simmental Fall 2012 EPDs are on a New Base Starting with the Fall 2012 EPDs, all animals in Red Angus and Simmental’s multi-breed database will be described using the same language. That is, their EPDs will be published on the same multi-breed base and scale. This marks the first time that major beef breeds have expressed their EPDs on a common base (i.e.—the same scale). This step allows producers to directly compare genetic predictions from the largest multi-breed database in the world. Selection for Growth (BW, WW, YW, Milk) and Carcass (MARB, YG, CW, REA, FAT) EPDs will be greatly simplified as commercial customers will be able to directly compare these EPDs across breeds.
