EPD COMPARISON AND AVERAGE DATA Expected Progeny Difference (EPD), is the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to progeny of other animals in the database. EPD’s are expressed in units of measure for each trait. For Example: Weaning Weight EPD (WW) , expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.
• Bull A WW EPD: +50 • Bull B WW EPD: +60
A producer can expect Bull B to sire calves that weigh 10 lbs more at weaning than Bull A – assuming that the bulls are exposed to similar
cows, similar environment, and similar management. EPD’s are a very good tool to use in bull selection.
The American Angus Association strongly encourages breeders and users of Angus genetics to use EPD’s as the genetic improvement tool of choice. EPD’s account for all the available information on an animal – individual measures, progeny data, pedigree and genomic result.
