For about 5 years, U.S. Brown Swiss classiers have been scoring Mobility, or how freely and easily a cow moves and stands. USDA-AIP has used this information to calculate a genetic evaluation (PTA) for Mobility. Their work shows good heritability (.21) and positive correlation with all production traits and Productive Life. Whether milking 40 cows on pasture or 3000 in freestalls, a cows ability to walk, stand and get up and down is crucial for efcient and protable production. Clearly, the PTA for Mobility is a big improvement on the current Foot and Leg Composite. It seems certain this will become a part of both PPR and NM Indexes. Were happy Brown Swiss will have the rst meaningful genetic evaluation for this important trait.
