Why breed Wagyu?
                                              Dr Michael Bradfield

T
       he mission of Wagyu in South Africa is to transform the South African beef
       industry to be highly profitable with consumers demanding and enjoying a
       premium eating experience. Wagyu weaners get a premium in the market
of at least 20%. Despite the current drop in weaner prices, Wagyu is still holding
its own simply because it does not trade as a commodity. Wagyu meat is world
renowned for its superior meat quality. Its tenderness, flavour and heavy
marbling give the steak its satisfying mouthfeel. It is the feeling of the meat
melting in your mouth like butter that really makes Wagyu beef an outstanding
culinary experience.                                                                     Please explain the Certified Wagyu Beef (CWB) Program?

achieved amazing feats against all odds in establishing a vibrant and, we must say, rocket-fuelled industry in a very short time! Congratulations to

The Genomic Estimated Breeding Values (GEBV) has been derived solely from the Blackmore Wagyu herd using; 6,950 genomic
profiles imputed to 800K SNPs, five generation parent verified pedigrees and 3,582 full blood carcass results. The percentage
accuracy of each GEBV is calculated from a combination of genomic markers, generation pedigree and carcass results.

The herd GEBV average is used to evaluate each animal by either adding or subtracting that animals’ GEBV against the herd
average. The Blackmore Wagyu herd average, based on the above combination, is EMA 93, FC 0.5, HCW 424.8, MS 9.1, P8 Fat
18.0 , Rib Fat 22.2.

The ‘blue text’ within the pedigree is production results sourced from the Japanese progeny test program, and the Herd
Carcass Data is the results from the Blackmore Wagyu production system.

The Genomic Estimated Breeding Values (GEBV) has been derived solely from the Blackmore Wagyu herd using; 6,950 genomic
profiles imputed to 800K SNPs, five generation parent verified pedigrees and 3,582 full blood carcass results. The percentage
accuracy of each GEBV is calculated from a combination of genomic markers, generation pedigree and carcass results.

The herd GEBV average is used to evaluate each animal by either adding or subtracting that animals’ GEBV against the herd
average. The Blackmore Wagyu herd average, based on the above combination, is EMA 93, FC 0.5, HCW 424.8, MS 9.1, P8 Fat
18.0 , Rib Fat 22.2.

The ‘blue text’ within the pedigree is production results sourced from the Japanese progeny test program, and the Herd
Carcass Data is the results from the Blackmore Wagyu production system.
