DATA Key
PLEASE MAKE NOTE THAT MANY OF THE ANIMALS WERE IN DIFFERENT CONTEMPORARY GROUPS AT WEANING; THERE- FORE, IT IS NOT FAIR TO COMPARE BIRTH, WEANINGS AND YEARLING WEIGHTS FROM ONE HERD TO ANOTHER.

GENOMIC ENHANCED EPDS
EPDs Expected Progeny Difference (EPDs) is the best estimate of an animal’s genetic merit for a particular trait. It takes into account the animals’ own performance compared with its contemporar- ies and the performance of its relatives compared against their contemporaries. Genomic Enhanced Expected Progeny Difference (GE-EPDs) in- crease EPD accuracy and cause changes in EPDs based on genet- ic material actually inherited vs. genetic material assumed to be inherited. They use DNA test results, also known as genomic tests (minimum of 30K), along with other data to improve the reliabili- ty of an animal’s EPD, especially in younger animals. Calving Ease Direct (CED) predicts the percentage of unassisted births for a bull’s calves when bred to heifers. Birth Weight (BW) EPD Predicts calf size and calving ease. Weaning Weight (WW) EPD Predicts preweaning growth poten- tial. Yearling Weight (YW) EPD predicts overall growth potential. Milk EPD predicts the maternal contribution to weaning weight of the calf through milk production, behavior, immunity and other ma- ternal environmental factors. Total Maternal (TM) predicts weaning weight of calves from a bull’s daughters. Scrotal Circumference (SC) EPD predicts not only testicular size of male progeny, but also daughters onset puberty. Terminal Index (TERM) combines birth weight, weaning weight, milk production, post wean gain, ribeye area, marbling, and back fat EPDs into a single number. The index is expressed as a stan- dard deviation from breed average, meaning that bulls with a +2 index are two standard deviations above the average. Higher numbers are superior to low numbers. Fertility Index (FERT) combines heifer pregnancy, stayability, days to first calving, mature cow weight, and back fat EPDs into a sin - gle number. The index is expressed as a +2 index are two standard deviations above the average. Higher numbers are superior to low numbers.
ULTRASOUND EPDs Ribeye Area (REA) EPD predicts total muscle. Intermuscular Fat (IMF) EPD predicts % of intramuscular fat which is highly correlated to marbling. *REA and IMF are primary components of USDA YG and marbling is the primary component of USDA QG. PERFORMANCE I ndividual performance data is provided as supplementary infor- mation as EPDDs provide more reliable evaluation of genetic dif- ferences of animals. Actual Birth Weight (BW) are reported. Weaning Weight (WW) are adjusted to 205 days. Yearling Weight (YW) are adjusted to 365 days. Average Daily Gain (ADG) is a measure of growth rate on a high energy diet. It is positively associated with feed efficiency. Ribeye Areas (REA) are adjusted to 365 days and ratioed relative to contemporaries. Intramuscular Fat (FAT) are adjusted to 365 days and ratioed rela- tive to contemporaries. IMF is highly correlated to marbling. EPD PERCENTILE RANKINGS Individual rankings are based on the Red Brangus population on a specific trait, represented in the form of a percentage, with 1% being best and 99% being worst. RETAINED OWNERSHIP BULLS Semen Sale, Marketing, and Collections will be coordinated through Villa Ranch and Hi Point Sales and Marketing. Expenses and proceeds will be split based on semen interest percentage after all expenses are paid.
