Reference: Economic Breeding Index (EBI)

Reference information:
I believe the EURO here refers to the EBI, which is profit index for bulls and cows. EBI is calculated based on several parameters of bulls or cows (such as weight, milk production, pregnancy, etc.) That is why EBI is related to the proofs, which offer a lot of data (such as weight, milk production, etc.) on the bulls or cows.

Generally speaking, the higher the EBI, the more profitable the breed. EBI can be expressed in EURO, USD or other currencies.


EBI is a single figure profit index aimed at helping farmers identify the most profitable bulls and cows for breeding dairy herd replacements.

It comprises of information on five Sub-Indexes related to profitable milk production. These are:

1. Production 2. Fertility 3. Calving 4. Beef 5. Health

A summary of the Sub-Indexes, including traits and relative weightings, are given in the following table. The economic values in the index are based on data collected from Irish Dairy Farms and the Irish Dairy Industry.

Reference: Euro

Reference information:
在這應是指乳製品和牛肉的驗證後的價值後的價值是由歐元來表達。
像在愛爾蘭，他們使用EBI(economic breeding index)來評定乳製品的價值，使用的貨幣單位就是Euro（歐元）。
