MEI Proxy Methodology

The Methane Emission Intensity (MEI) proxy methodology. Derives a relative emissions intensity score from feed intake efficiency (NFI-F), mature body size (MCW), and growth efficiency — enabling emissions-aware sire selection using currently available TACE data.

Stayability & Longevity V1.0

Predicting daughter productive herd life from six genetic indicators: body condition retention, calving ease, structural soundness, fertility, feed efficiency, and mature frame. A bull’s stayability prediction determines how long his daughters will stay in the herd and pay back their development cost.

Female Genetic Evaluation V1.0

The maternal composite and cow efficiency framework. Cow Efficiency Ratio (CER), stocking impact, curve-bender scoring, and predicted cow size — translating sire genetics into practical paddock economics for the daughter herd.

Birth Weight & Calving Ease V1.0

Calving safety guardrails and heifer safety scoring. The biological thresholds for Birth Weight, Calving Ease Direct, and Gestation Length that determine safe joining over heifers — and the antagonism detection logic that flags bulls who score well on one but fail on another.
