In this presentation, AHDB's Signet Breeding Manager Sam Boon explains how to best use breeding information to buy a Signet recorded Poll Dorset or Dorset Horn ram. It covers the commercial benefits of using recorded breeding stock, where to find the information, what estimated breeding values (EBVs) mean, and how to benefit from the breeding information which is available.
