Carcas Weight (CW): The difference in pounds of hanging carcass weight. Marbling (MB): The difference in the USDA marbling scores. Higher is more favorable. Rib Eye (RE): The difference in the square inches of rib eye. $Maternal ($M): An index (combination) of multiple EPDs that pertain to the profitability difference from conception to weaning for those retaining their own replacement females. Index’s are contrived of scenarios that don’t necessarily fit each producers management, resources, niche markets or goals. You can use index’s for quick sorts but would have you look towards the individual traits of your needs ideally. $Beef ($B): An index (combination) of multiple EPDs that pertain to the terminal profitable difference from weaning to harvest. This index awards cattle for higher YW, CW, MB, RE, and lower Fat. $Combination ($C): An index (combination) of index’s. This primarily is a combination of $Maternal and $Beef. This index can easily be influenced by a terminal or maternal trait and is not a true prediction of something complete or combined. In most cases it can be, but we still encourage you to look at all traits that best suit you and use $C as a quick sorting tool.
DNA Scores: Below many EPDs bars you will find a line of 18 traits (many that are abbreviated just like the EPDs above). These are DNA scores and are represented as a percentile rank within the breed (lower is more favorable.) This just shows another layer of the tools used in the decision making that goes into the more accurate EPD above. The EPD takes into account, parental information, DNA information, and weights and measurements of the actual animal. %Ranks in EPDS: Under many EPDs you will see % ranks. That shows how that animal ranks within the breed for that trait. Example, 1.87 MB 1%, that means that animal ranks in the top 1% of the breed for MB EPD. There are 26 different EPDs and Index’s provided by the American Angus Association. We list the EPDs and Index’s that are most pertinent to our customers to save space and time. We know some prefer more information and it is always available at www.angus.org. It the upper right-hand corner enter the animals registration number in the search bar and the entire pedigree and EPD profile is at your fingertips.
