Summary: The Girolando breed progeny test was established in 1997, as a result of the partnership between Girolando and Embrapa Dairy Cattle. In 2007, the Programa de Melhoramento Genético da Raça Girolando - PMGG (Genetic Improvement Program of the Girolando Breed) was implemented. This Sire Summary/Progeny Test Results document has innovative tools and resources, for breeders and/or other professionals. Those include information regarding molecular markers, the Girolando Linear Evaluation System (SALG) and the updated genetic evaluation of age at first calving. The methods for analysis were modified for this current evaluation and are detailed further in this document.
