[QUOTE="MO_cows, post: 662903, member: 9169"] For the beef breeds that have EPD in the U.S., there is a chart that gives you numbers to add or subtract to compare them evenly. Angus is the baseline of the chart, so you use Angus EPD "as is". The other breeds, you have to do a little math to compare the major traits where they have EPD in common.
