Icbf changing fertility index

stanflt

Ah I smell a rat- the last time they changed production index they eventually admitted to over evaluating Irish bulls production figures

we currently have young bulls with 200 fertility index but when they become daughter proven their figures are the same as international bulls that have a figure of around 30- when questioned they won’t answer but give a propaganda answer

is this a hidden way of admitting over evaluations

Cancelled my subscription with the shower of c**ts this year, was been harassed to pay 150 euro a bull for any bulls brought in especially for us by progressive from semex for us that weren't available here, ai company covers this already but they have a new policy apparently where farmer has to cough up aswell....

They hammered this bull I brought in for 2022 on fertility in the earlier evaluations then of course he comes up 50 euro as time goes bye, his American genomic proofs for dpr are matching his daughter proven proofs so what exactly is going on when they apparently test these bulls genomically on the Irish system makes no sense

When you see how they have still kept his ebi on the floor by hammering him on the carbon and beef index it tells its own story

straight

I never trust the fertility figure anyway. It definitely needs fixing imo
