Is Pedigree the Measure of Animas True Value
Livestock experts argue that improvement comes from fertility vigor and economical production rather than merely increasing pedigreed purebreds. They note U S origin shifts and Britain’s influence widened the gap between pedigree and nonpedigree stock as demand for purebreds grows. Emphasis on show ring traits over actual production is likened to judging a person by ancestors rather than actions.
