Comparing Genetic Value of Bulls from Different Breeds: Across Breed EPDs

AN162, a 5-page fact sheet by Gary R. Hansen, describes how to use tables developed by the US Meat Animal Research Center (MARC) which provide adjustment factors to allow for the calculation of across-breed expected progeny differences (AB-EPDs) to assess genetic potential across different breeds....
