Performance recording gives breeders and bull buyers an objective way of assessing the genetic merit of breeding animals through the production of Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs).

EBVs provide a recognised way to add value to your cattle and to improve your herd.

There are two main reasons to record with Signet:

1. Improve your marketing:

  • At sales – where there is an increasing commercial demand for EBVs
  • From home – where EBVs can support the breeding claims of homebred bulls
  • On-line – where bulls and semen sales can be promoted using EBVs.

2. Improve your herd:

  • With an independent and accurate assessment of carcase traits
  • With EBVs for traits of commercial and economic importance

If you want to take your herd forward, add value to your breeding stock and promote your genetics – then start recording with Signet.

 

Beefbreeder is a performance recording service for cattle producers.

Through the analysis of pedigree and performance records a range of Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs) and Breeding Indexes are generated to help beef producers identify genetically superior bulls and cows.
