[QUOTE="Herefords.US, post: 1338633, member: 3972"] Once the predictions of beef cattle's individual genetic potential become much more accurate (SUPER GE EPDs), I see the same thing happening. The commercial beef industry has no use for the purple ribbons, only what genetic package will produce a product that makes the most profit in the conditions that cattle are raised under. Breeds will be superseded with higher refined "strains" whose genetic makeup is laser focused on a particular purpose - maternal, terminal, feedlot based finishing, grass based finishing, etc., etc. [/QUOTE]
