Come along for a day in the life of a 27 year old female farmer farming alongside my parents & husband. There's never a dull moment each and every single day. In today's video, we're discussing genetic testing more in depth since we started testing our herd with INHERIT Select® through @zoetiscattle a few years ago.

If you’ve been here for a while, you know that I am a genetics NERD. We don’t have a fancy purebred herd, but there is still a ton of value in knowing the genetic potential of our cows and genomic testing is available for commercial cows with INHERIT Select, an innovative, multi-breed genomic test and weekly genetic evaluation providing genomic EPDs for crossbred commercial females from Zoetis.

INHERIT Select® provides genomic predictions for Angus, Red Angus, Hereford, South Devon, Charolais, Limousin, Gelbvieh and Simmental breeds. Predictions are also available on animals up to 50% Brahman.
