Description
Bull Selection will assist you to use key fertility measures included in a Bull Breeding Soundness Evaluation (BBSE), define and seek the necessary genetic traits when selecting a bull, use sound breeding objectives and select more profitable sires for your herd.
Bull Selection examines the three traits to review when selecting, fertiltiy, growth and carcase. The relative importance of each of these trait groups will vary according to the performance of the individual herd, the environment where the animals are managed and the producers target market. Information contained in this publication is the result of many decades of research and development by the DPI and organisations such as the Cooperative Research Centre for Cattle and Meat Quality. The latest outcomes of some of this work, such as DNA fingerprinting, gene marker technologies and net feed efficiencies, have been incorporated into this publication.
