PowerLine Index Values

IntroductionThe history of cattle breeding contains many horror stories resulting from single-trait selection whictually every case, resulted in more loss than gain from the standpoint of profitability. Selection Indbased on genetics and economics are great tools to keep things in balance (genetically) and to improbalance sheet (economically).

PowerLine offers three unique index values to assist in your selection decisions.

PowerLine uses life-cycle index models. This means that all economic and biological factors affecbeef production are considered in every index, but each index emphasizes certain packages of traits tain purposes.

Power-Total Index is an all purpose index that considers maternal performance, post-weaning growefficiency, and carcass quality & yield to maximize life-cycle profitability.

Power-Beef Index is a terminal sire index. Use it to select sires to maximize profitability of progenare fed and sold on a carcass value grid.

Indexes are expressed in economic terms, as contrasted to EPDs which are expressed in units of thsuch as pounds. Computation of an index takes into account the EPDs that an animal has for certainand genetic correlations between the traits. It also incorporates the relative economic value of the trthe cost of inputs. An index may include traits that work against one another or complement one anboth. Example: larger birth weight tends to be correlated with heavier weaning weights. However,extent that heavier birth weight can also cause calving difficulty and can reduce newborn calf survivwork against weaning weight within the context of the whole herd (fewer live calves to sell). An indeach of these factors into account and produces a single number.
