Deer Progeny Test - AgResearch
Project that identifies and records deer performance and production traits in progeny raised in different commercial herds from a selection of stags. Outputs will be breeding values available on DEERSelect that enable objective comparison between stags (and indeed breeds) in a terminal carcass evaluation system and a maternal (replacement) system.
