[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1583262, member: 968"] Cowpol - that is how ASA explains it. "The traits show how many progeny records it takes for an animal without genomics to have the same BIF accuracy as the young animal with genomics (but no progeny). In other words, EPD on a genotyped 1-month-old calf will be as accurate as an animal with birth weights on 21 calves, weaning weights on 22 calves, etc." ASA gives us all the traits & how many calves a DNA is equal to. I had that info in my last newsletter. [/QUOTE]
