Changes in Fertility Evaluations - August 2019
August 12, 2019

Recently the Council on Dairy Cattle Breeding (CDCB) released an update regarding the changes in fertility evaluations for the upcoming August proofs. The goal of the changes is to improve the stability of the fertility evaluations. The results of these stability updates will result in a one time drop in the values of the fertility traits, but a more accurate and stable proof in the future.
