I just read a study showing the data for Charalois bulls and cows from 1990 to 2003. I was surprised to find the following results:
Bulls Cows
BW WW YW BW WW YW
1990 93 633 1131 89 580 871
2003 92 655 1184 86 596 913
This was amazing to me. Are we improving bull and cows to have lower birth weights while increasing their WW and YW? This would indicate some great management selection, if it's true.
Does anyone know if this extends to other breeds as well?
Ofcourse one has to assume that all data collected is true...
