Summary

  • Bulls siring IQ+BEEF or FSBI calves will be required to meet the PPS and CPS requirements. This requires cattle to have performance EPD data from a national cattle evaluation or breed association.
  • All breeds and breed combinations will be eligible, but cattle cannot have more than a 2" hump at harvest.
  • Data for embryo transfer cattle without an EPD will be calculated based on the average of the sire and dam's EPDs.
