[QUOTE="RegCowman, post: 1213834, member: 22839"] Here is a good article on that > [url]http://beefmagazine.com/seedstock/epds-benefit-terminal-production-systems[/url] Genomically Enhanced EPD's are even better -- I think really it is about being as transparent as possible, giving the buyer all the info we can, so that they can make an educated decision on their next purchase. The serious cattleman/woman is relying less and less on phenotype and much more on genotype (which drives phenotype and performance). In days gone by, the buyer only had phenotype to judge an animal -- those days are long gone and we all know that it isnt what's on the outside than drives performance, but rather whats on the inside (genetics) that drives performance.
