Spring 2006 Angus Breed Average EPD’s:  BW: +2.3, Milk: +19, WW: +38, YW: +70; Ultrasound: %IMF: +0.08, REA: +0.18, Fat:+0.003.

 

 

Terminology:

 

Ultrasound technology allows the prediction of accurate genetic values for carcass traits with less time and expense than traditional carcass evaluation.  Ultrasound measurements are adjusted to an age-constant endpoint.

 

% IMF Percent Intramuscular Fat predicts the percentage of intramuscular fat in the ribeye, which is directly related to USDA Marbling Score.  Higher IMF values indicate a higher % intramuscular fat, therefore a higher marbling score.

 

Ribeye Area reported in square inches.

 

Fat thickness predicts the external fat thickness between the 12th rib and the rump of a bull’s progeny compared to progeny of all other bulls evaluated.   Reported in inches.
