US BEEF INDEX e US Beef index is a terminal prot selection index that is expressed as dollars of protability per head of progeny. e US Beef index marries decades of performance information and thousands of genomics records for traits of economic importance that drive the ABS genetic evaluation along with appropriate and forward- looking economic weighting of those traits. ABS’ proprietary index is calculated using a host of data sources including their progeny test programs and long-time industry partners. A quality end product and increased pounds are key economic drivers in the entire beef supply chain. Customers interested in retaining ownership and endpoint protability need sires that excel in performance, feed eciency, and carcass merit. • An economic index designed to identify sires whose progeny will most eciently convert resources to pounds of quality carcass weight and total endpoint protability. • Use to select sires that will maximize the terminal value of a calf crop.

EFFICIENCY INDEX Feed costs are the largest expense in beef production which is why improved eciency continues to be a key focus of research. ABS has developed the Feed Eciency Index as a part of the selection criteria of the AngusX bulls. is index is backed by more than 13,000 individual feed intake records. • Reects the

CARCASS INDEX e ABS genetic evaluation system was built purposely to identify sires that generate the most protable feeder cattle in the beef supply chain. is is the very system that we use today to drive genetic progress in our AngusX program, designed specically with protability and the beef supply chain in mind. • Reects the economic value of key carcass traits including carcass weight, marbling, ribeye area, and back fat. • Use in conjunction with the US Beef Index to identify sires that will maximize net carcass value.

economic value of post weaning feed conversion. • Use alongside the US Beef Index to identify protable sires that move the needle for feed eciency.
