BW
Actual birth weight of animal.
SC
Current scrotal measurement.
WDA
Weight gain per day since birth.
Sale Weight
Weight of animal at catalog printing time plus average pounds per day to date.
“EPDs”
- Expected Progeny Difference that an animal has as compared to the breed average.
CED EPD
Reported calving ease on an animal’s direct offspring and on his ancestor’s direct offspring.
CEM EPD
Reported calving ease that an animal’s daughters display.
BW EPD
Birth weight of animal’s progeny expected difference as compared to the breed average.
MILK EPD
Weight difference of offspring from daughters of animal when compared to their contemporary group.
SC EPD
Scrotal size difference expected on offspring of an animal when compared to breed average.
WW EPD
Weaning weight difference expected on offspring of an animal when compared to breed average.
YW EPD

FAT EPD
Back fat difference expected on offspring of an animal when compared to breed average.
REA EPD
Rib eye area difference expected on offspring of an animal when compared to breed average.
IMF EPD
Intramuscular fat difference expected on offspring of an animal when compared to breed average.
Blk Cow Ind Selected and weighted traits of an animal that best compliment the Angus breed average traits.
CEZ Index
Selected and weighted traits of an animal that reflect the animal’s calving ease potential.
CHB Index
Selected and weighted traits of an animal that reflect the animal’s feedlot and carcass profit potential.
Total Index Total of indexes that affect your bottom line.
Because of data collected on animals in a pedigree, EPDs & $ Indexes are superior to
an animal’s actual measurements in predicting an animal’s genetic ability.
On January 1
st
and July 1
st
of each year the entire data base of the American Hereford Association is updated
for producers. The mammoth computers take into consideration the relatives of each animal’s performance
information and do countless calculations when updating each animal in the database.
You can find more detailed information on each of the performance measurements in the preface of the Sire
Summary of the Hereford Breed.
