Question

*You are looking at the heritability of litter size at weaning in pigs (17%)

*The herd average for this trait is 10 piglets per litter at weaning

*When looking at an individual Sow, she has 12 piglets per litter at weaning

 

Calculate the following:

     -What is the Estimated Breeding Value of the Sow

     -Determine the Sows Expected Progeny Difference

***Make sure to enter your answers using numbers & use decimals when necessary***

The EBV of the sow is ______________________more pigs per litter then the herd average.
 
Therefore, the sows progeny can be expected to have ______________more pigs per litter then the herd average.
