Description

Irongate Michifuku P0788 has some great EBVs to his name, boasting both Marble Score and Marble Fineness inside the top 5% of the breed. The powerful lines of Michifuku across Itoshigenami which this bull contains in his pedigree have produced high economic value EBVs (EMA, MS, MF), well above mid-parent values.

Included in the Progeny Testing Program (PTP) where each sire’s progeny will be benchmarked against key industry sires enabling further proof of its performance EBV’s. The 2021-2031 AWA-PTP’s purpose is to leverage the existing highly successful global Wagyu BREEDPLAN genetic analysis through testing progeny from many emerging industry sires for high-value Wagyu sector traits.
