[QUOTE="insurman, post: 1092405, member: 18927"] When you look at the ASA # on the Simmi bull the last EPD is the TI (Terminal Index). The higher % the better. [b]Terminal Index (TI), expressed in net dollars returned per cow exposed, evaluates the merit of sires when bred to mature Angus cows and all progeny are fed and sold on a carcass grade and yield basis. Consequently, maternal traits such as milk, stayability and MCE are not considered in this index.[/b] [/QUOTE]
