GB Calf Week Webinar: Understanding genetic tools to maximise calf value

Join Marco Winters and Alex Brown from AHDB to hear more about how you can use genetic tools to inform your breeding decisions and maximise the value of your calves.

Breeding lies at the foundation of any livestock production system. While breeding decisions are just one element of cattle management, selecting superior parents to breed from will lead to cumulative and permanent gains in herd productivity, profitability, health and efficiency.

This webinar will cover:

• Why it's important to consider improving your herd's genetic merit
• Which indexes can help you improve calf survival and performance
• Use of sexed and beef semen to finetune performance

This webinar is part of a series of events for GB Calf Week. Find the full list of events here.
