A list of the management codes follows the Calf Crop Record Work Sheet at the end of this document. Your local county Extension agent or a livestock specialist can input the information into the computer. The following is the list of results provided by the Cow Herd Performance Testing Program. Adjusted to 205 days of age 2. Under performance test guidelines, calf weights are not adjusted for sex of calf.
Adjusted weights allow calves within a sex group to be reported on an equal basis.
Ratios Weight ratios are calculated for adjusted 205-day weights. Weight ratios show an animal's relationship to its group average in percentage points. The group average will have a ratio of 100. If a calf has a weaning weight ratio of 105, it could be said that this calf was 5 percentage points above the group average. Weight ratios will show the same comparisons seen with adjusted weight.
