Abstract excerpt

Genetic parameters for ewes were estimated for stayability (STAY) and productive life (Prodlife). Records from 658,871 animals from 241 seed stock or ram breeder flocks and one research flock were used to estimate parameters for ram breeder flock STAY and Prodlife. These flocks would have a culling policy based on criteria typical of a commercial enterprise, but including culls based on knowledge such as...
