Make Genetic Data Work for You
Record and display EBV and ASBV data alongside your animal records, and help buyers make informed purchasing decisions with transparent genetic merit.
The Genetic Data Challenge
Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs) and Australian Sheep Breeding Values (ASBVs) are powerful tools for genetic improvement. But for many studs, this data lives in separate systems — downloaded as PDFs, then manually transcribed into sale catalogues and marketing materials.
This disconnect creates problems. Data entry errors creep in. Catalogues go to print with outdated figures. Buyers can't easily compare animals. And the producer loses time that could be spent on more valuable work.
Frisbee bridges this gap by giving you a central place to record and display genetic data alongside your animal records. When you update your EBVs, your records, catalogues, and buyer-facing profiles reflect the latest figures automatically.

Genetic Data FAQs
What genetic data can I record in Frisbee?
Frisbee supports recording EBV data for beef cattle and ASBV data for sheep. Data is linked to individual animal records and can be updated as new evaluations become available.
How often should I update my genetic data in Frisbee?
We recommend updating after each breed society evaluation run — typically quarterly for most breeds. Keeping your records current ensures your profiles and catalogues always reflect the latest figures.
Can buyers see EBV data on shared profiles?
Yes. When you share an animal profile or catalogue link with a buyer, they can view the latest EBV or ASBV data alongside photos and pedigree information. This transparency builds buyer confidence.
Does Frisbee help me interpret EBV data?
Frisbee displays EBV data with breed percentile rankings where available, making it easier to see where an animal sits relative to the breed average. This helps both you and your buyers understand genetic merit at a glance.
