In this webinar Marco Winters, AHDB Dairy Head of Genetics, will cover how UK Genomic evaluations, available since 2012, are transforming the UK breeding industry.
AHDB Dairy is part of one of the largest international genomic collaboration with the USA, Canada and Italy, providing UK producers with world class genomic information.

Marco will explain the fundamentals of genomics, as well as evidence of its ability to predict future performance of daughter proven bulls.

Although so far the major focus has been on the benefit to identifying high quality young bulls early, the ability to use the exact same power of prediction for female youngstock testing remains largely unexplored. Benefits for screening and management of youngstock early will also be highlighted.
