Find out how to get the most from your bull choice this coming season with AHDB, Genus and Manor Farm Vets.

We will cover:

  • The use of estimated breeding values (EBVs) in beef cattle:
    • What they are
    • How they work
    • The differences between providers
    • Why you should be considering them whenever you’re making a bull choice – pedigree or commercial, bull or semen
  • Exciting advances in beef breeding:
  • What to consider pre-breeding if you’re using physical bulls:
    • Are they sound, fit and ready to work?

Speakers

  • Alex Brown, Beef Genetic Services Manager, Genus ABS
  • Harriet Bunning, Lead Animal Genetics Expert, AHDB

This will be an interactive meeting. We want you to come armed with questions and experiences and we’ll have an informative and useful evening that will give you confidence and new ideas when choosing your next bull.
