EPD Comparison and Average DataExpected Progeny Difference (EPD), is the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform rel-ative to progeny of other animals in the database. EPD’s are expressed in units of measure for each trait.
For Example:Weaning Weight EPD (WW), expressed in pounds, is a pre-dictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.
• Bull A WW EPD: +50• Bull B WW EPD: +60
A producer can expect Bull B to sire calves that weigh 10 lbs more at weaning than Bull A – assuming that the bulls are exposed to similar cows, similar environment, and similar management.
EPD’s are a very good tool to use in bull selection.
The American Angus Association strongly encourages breed-ers and users of Angus genetics to use EPD’s as the genetic improvement tool of choice. EPD’s account for all the availa-ble information on an animal – individual measures, progeny data, pedigree and genomic result.
