| BWT | WWT | PWWT | PFAT | PEMD | TCP | LEQ | |
| Bruan Ram Avg. | 0.34 | 10.1 | 16.1 | -0.6 | 3.2 | 153.1 | 148.3 |
| Terminal Avg. | 0.35 | 9.4 | 14.3 | -0.4 | 1.7 | 137.6 | 130.7 |
BWT = birthweight - low birth weight values will produce lighter birth weight lambs.
WWT = weaning weight- the more positive ASBV will produce lambs that grow quicker to weaning
PWWT = postweaning weight - a higher value will produce faster growing lambs and reach target weights in a shorter time
PFAT = postweaning fat - the more negative the value,the leaner the lambs will be
PEMD = postweaning eye muscle depth - positive values will genetically have more muscle in the loin area and better carcass shape
PFEC = estimates an animals genetic potential for worm burdens. Lower ASBV's are desirable.
TCP = is the new production index replacing CARCASS +. This index has the same breeding objective as carcass + while maintaining eating quality.
LEQ = is the eating quality index targeted at terminal producers interested in improving the meat eating quality of their prime lambs. LEQ is based on the same production targets as Lamb 2020 with the added emphasis on eating quality traits.
For any assistance or more detailed explanation on ASBVs to compliment your production system, please ask David. Inspection of sale rams is from 11.00 am on the day of the sale or by prior arrangement. Please join us for a light luncheon and refreshments before and after the sale.
