4 Complete performance data from birth to harvest including:

• Calving Ease

• Pre-weaning performance

• Feedlot gain and intake

• Carcass yield and quality

4 Derived from large commercial contemporary groups

4 The first modern beef selection index in 1996 and still the most comprehensive

Tenderness4 The first & only Shear Force EPDs in the Angus breed

4 EPDs are expressed in pounds with lower numbers indicating increased tenderness

4 Research indicates that shear force measurements less than 3.00 kg can be classified in a “Guaranteed Tender” range based on taste panel results

4 Bulls with the “Proven Tender” logo have been bench marked to produce progeny in the “Guaranteed Tender” range through the Angus Sire Alliance program

Feed Efficiency 4 The Feed Efficiency Index identifies the most profitable combinations of intake and gain

4 Backed by 13 years of individual progeny intake data

4 Feed efficiency genetics can account for as much as $40 value difference per calf

2011 Feed Efficiency Data The graph to the left shows the intake and gain data for the ABS bulls that have been evaluated through the Angus Sire Alliance for feed efficiency. This chart includes only the data on ABS bulls and represents just a portion of the entire database. Each dot characterizes one bull’s combined genetic value for gain and intake. The Red line represents an index value of +$0.00 with bulls above and to the right of the line having positive feed efficiency indexes with a more profitable combination of enhanced gain and lower intake genetics. Increased distance from the line indicates larger profit differentials.
