[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 16146"] when you select a bull by breed, you select for the average traits of that breed, when you select by genetic traits, you select for specific traits of a specific animal. the first one is done in the beginning of a low cost breeding program or in the middle ages, the second one is done by anyone who wants to be sure of the quality that he will get. so go for the bull with a sound genetic reputation from the breed that will be most profitable for you, but make sure his epd's are accurate for your purpose. i wouldn't go for the wagyu, they're silly cattle anyways.
