Description of EBVs and Indexes

The ABRI Users Group is a body set up to represent the interests of those beef cattle breeds who have chosen to adopt ABRI’s “BREEDPLAN INTERNATIONAL” as the best internet based software available worldwide for recording pedigree registrations and performance recording, and for genetic evaluation. Those breeds being Aberdeen Angus, Beef Shorthorn, Belgian Blue, Hereford, British Simmental, and South Devon.

British Simmental BREEDPLAN EBV’s are compiled from pedigree records submitted to the British Simmental Cattle Society (BSCS) and performance records collected by British Simmental breeders.
