EDC values should be rounded to the nearest integer value.<
> . <>''Calving:''<> The weighting factors used for calving traits it the total number of calvings for the direct effects and number of daughters with calving for maternal effect<
> . <>''Longevity:''<> The weighting factor used for longevity traits depends on the national genetic evaluation model. For linear models the weighting factor is the same as described above for conformation, fertility, production, udder health and workability traits. For survival models number of culled daughters is used as the weighting factor. . ^11^Reliability values are nationally calculated reliability values expressed in percents with 4 decimials.
