New Prices for Limousin Genetic Tests Announced

The North American Limousin Foundation announced new prices for genetic testing. Of particular note, is the new price for genomic-enhanced EPDs coming in at $60 or $55 if bundled with another test. As the price of genomic-enhanced EPDs continues to decrease, it becomes more attractive for producers to test larger numbers of animals.

Other reminders:
• DNA Results are sent to NALF from the lab every Thursday,  results are then processed in the NALF system and available to members on Fridays.
• NALF only registers ET calves off of the DNA test request form. Any natural calves must be submitted on a natural calf registration application.
• February 15th is the deadline to submit data to be included in the next genetic evaluation (calculation of EPDs).
