In order to rectify the epd situation the shorthorn assoc needs breeders to go to a total herd reporting program.  where data on all calves are sent in.  all i can say is good luck with that, cause most shorty breeders could care less about epds.  Some breeders probably don't know they exist (extreme I know, but true).

We have Whole Herd Reporting (WHR).  Good luck getting accurate info from most Shorthorn breeders though...

Is that something we should be proud of?

Definitely not GB.  I was just saying that we DO have a total herd reporting program....not that it's utilized enough..

I won't ever forget a quote from an AgEcon Professor, Dr John Goodwin, who said " I am an Economist, and my job is to interpret data. One thing to remember, is that 'Figures Lie, when Liars Figure"." So true.
