Overview

A good bull offers both high fertility and high genetic breeding value for one or more economically important characteristics, such as growth, calving ease, maternal value, and carcass quality. Fertility in a bull is generally defined as the ability to impregnate females, which is certainly a minimum requirement, but a bull with high fertility is able to impregnate more than the expected number of cows in a short breeding season.
