Hair Shedding (HS) EPD

The American Angus Association introduced the Hair Shedding (HS) EPD in the spring of 2022. For producers in heat-stressed areas that graze endophyte-infected (hot) fescue, hair shedding is an evaluation of environmental adaptability and cow performance.
Listen in, as Jason Pratt, of Pratt Cattle Co., Atkins, Virginia as he reports on how the Hair Shedding EPD has helped him select sires for his herd.
Here are the top 1% sires for HS in the Select Sires lineup:
7AN757 SULUDA, 7AN589 SILVERADO, 7AN759 FIREPROOF, 7AN758 APEX, 14AN502 TAHOE, 7AN805 POWERCAT, 7AN684 GUARD RAIL and 7AN389 SURE FIRE.
