Genomics in the beef cattle industry has become a game changer for producers. Both commercial cattle producers and seed stock or purebred cattle producers are using the technology to improve herds. The data collected from genomics allows for a quick understanding when selecting replacement heifers (Maternal Traits) and for then the marketing of steers (carcass and growth traits).
GENETIC TOOLS

Some may even consider this a virtual snapshot of the genes flowing thru an existing herd, or use it on a grander scale to find the probability and cost involved to change for the betterment of a herd.
