Accurate. Affordable. Dependable.
- HD 50K™ is the enduring gold standard for genomic prediction
- Greatly increases accuracy and scope of predictions for young bulls and females with limited or no progeny
- One sample for GE-EPD, parentage, initial progeny proof and sire assignment
- GE-EPDs empower more informed breeding and marketing decisions throughout the beef supply chain
- Enables sire assignment and efficiently provides dependable genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs)
- Three options for sample collection: FTA blood cards, hair cards (from the roots of the tail switch), and the preferred method, Allflex® tissue collectors
- Order sample collectors electronically from Zoetis
Young, non-parent Brangus animals, GE-EPDs powered by HD 50K have higher accuracy and less potential error.
- Higher accuracy is roughly equal to 10-20 progeny equivalents, with performance data contributing to conventional EPDs.
- The end result is fewer breeding mistakes and faster, more dramatic genetic advancements in productivity.
