[QUOTE="regolith, post: 1043150, member: 9267"] I've got the impression from reading around that breeders want to have as much information on the bulls they are marketing as possible, but some of the tests are either not available or are prohibitively expensive. There is new information on the bovine genome available all the time, but it seems like the technology to really make use of it is about where computers were sixty years ago. There is short-term benefit for marketers to bury their heads in the sand on some issues, that is undeniable. Whether they are doing that or not is going to be different for every breed association, every semen provider, & as far as I can see the export laws are completely random and unrelated to logic.
