Economic selection indexes for Hereford and Braford cattle raised in southern Brazil.

Journal of animal science - 1 Jul 2017

Costa R F, Teixeira B B M, Yokoo M J, Cardoso F F

Abstract excerpt

Economic selection indexes (EI) are considered the best way to select the most profitable animals for specific production systems. Nevertheless, in Brazil, few genetic evaluation programs deliver such indexes to their breeders. The aims of this study were to determine the breeding goals (BG) and economic values (EV, in US$) for typical beef cattle production systems in southern Brazil, to propose EI aimed to...
