Genetic evaluations
Meaning¶
Format 105's are used to release cow and does genetic evaluations (all except type traits).
Exchange protocol¶
CDCB releases this format 3 times a year, following the official release calendar . This file is public only for Elite and Top 5% cows.
Old (outdated) format¶
Location and details¶
Elite and Top 5% cows files are released compressed, encrypted and password-protected by 1 p.m., on the Friday prior to release date and placed in our public ftp . The password to open the files is supplied at 7 a.m. on release day, in the password file
Please note all files distributed by CDCB, have an LF (LINUX) End of Line (EOL) starting from September 2019. Prior to this date, zipped files had a DOS EOL.
