[QUOTE="JustSimmental, post: 834110, member: 14624"] I think Simmental compliment Blk Angus the best because the PB Simms help Angus with their obvious weaknesses: Poor WW and YW ; Poor REA and BF categories. In return Angus help Simmental in their obvious weaknesses in BW, IMF and MM (cutting down on the milk). Hereford are weak in so many EPD's of economic importance --anything would be beneficial to them. Red Angus are fairly weak in all but 1 category: WW, YW, MM, REA and IMF; BW is good Shorthorn BW is terrible, WW and YW is fair to good, but too much milk which increases mantainence expenses, Fair to poor on IMF and Fair REA Charolais BW is terrible, WW and YW is very good, MM is good, REA is good, but IMF is in the toilet, which can will end in Select grade cattle. Angus would be their best cross. All the heat tolerant cattle are weak in carcass merits period. Limmy's are select grade cattle period-- like eating a shoe.. I dont kow anyone that goes to the steakhouse and purposely orders a Select ribeye. Gelbvieh are weak in WW, pathetic in YW, MM is getting high, and in the toilet on IMF and REA. BW is ok. To answer your question Simmental and Blk Angus will definately work best and here is my information when looking at the various breeds: [url]http://www.beefcattlebiz.com/support-files/abepd.pdf[/url] [/QUOTE]
