[QUOTE="Loch Valley Fold, post: 662900, member: 8216"] Australia uses APR & ASI for dairy bulls the APR (Aust Profit Ranking) this is the 1 you should be looking at as it indicates which daughters are going to earn more $$ over natural or lower APR herd mates. For eample the current apr no.1 Jersey bull in Aust is CSCNAVARA he has an APR of 150 compared to NZGMINSTREL who has a apr no.7 ranking & apr 107. This means that Navara daughters will earn $150 over their lactation compared to Minstrel daughters who will only earn $107 for their lactation thats a $43.00 loss if you only went with Minstral. This doesn't anything though if you are wanting a house cow or something to rear a calf off each year. Beef Cattle are selected using EBV's & EPD's [/QUOTE]
