Explaining livestock breeding values | EBVs Health Traits

Описание: Hi, thanks for watching our video about EBV health traits and how to select the right breeding values.

This video covers the following subjects:

✅ Health traits such as worm and footrot resistance
✅ RAM
✅ Structural traits and impact on production

******************
Estimated breeding values (EBVs) can seem intimidating at first. We created the RAM BUYING GUIDE to help demystify the ram-buying process and provide you with tools to easily navigate future ram-buying experiences.

The guide covers the key production, health and structural traits, highlighting what to look for, what's in it for you and much, much more.

In this live, Dr. Mark Ferguson discusses four of the EBVs (worm resistance, footrot, dag score, and foot structure) to give you a deeper understanding of what they actually mean and how they can impact your flock's genetics.

In the future, we will run a wool-focused live one looking at the growth traits.
