Predicting Profit – The Rancher's Guide to EPDs

If not, it's still a good explanation of EPDs for anyone trying to understand them. Maybe Ollie will read it.

Profit is that elusive thing that we all are chasing and even catching sometimes.

Are you still trying to put words in my mouth, Ollie?

 

[ollie]

I thought I was trying to help rationalize your thoughts. If you didn't mean that I didn't understand them you are irrational.

It's childish to call people names, Ollie. Your momma would be ashamed.

 

[ollie]

Probably.

Good article but it doesn't address the same issues. The first one is an explanation of what EPDs mean. When I got the magazine I tried to find the article on-line and just like the other one they were still showing last months magazine as the current one.

Profitablility by using EPDs for all traits which they explain. The other articles pretty much just address' carcass grades.

You must not have read the same article I read. The article I read didn't just address carcass grades but discussed the lost profit from lack of muscle. Epd's were addressed as it related to carcass improvement. I am quite sure though you knew my intent for posting it. That intent was to show there are more decisions that relate to profitability than epd's.

What part of muscle doesn't have to do with carcass grade? And they also mentioned what EPDs for REA was required, or maybe those are a different meaning of EPD then what we usually think it to stand for.
