I was looking through an A'I catalogue and I compared a bulls epd's to his Igenity profile. He's in the top 20% of the breed for yield grade, and the top 10% for ribeye area and slightly below average for fat thickness. His Igenity profile gives him him a 10 for ribeye area, a 10 for carcass weight but a 1 for yield grade. The bull has a .8 accuracy on his EPD's so am I right in assuming he sires good yielding cattle even though he doesn't have a genetic marker to support it. I'd probably use him according to what is calves have actually done not on how they should.
