Holstein Association USA is hosting a free informational webinar about the Red Book Plus/MultiMateTM software on Friday, August 10, 2012, at 1 p.m. Eastern. The webinar will review and demonstrate various features of the program and include time to answer questions from viewers. Register for the webinar today at www.holsteinusa.com!

Red Book Plus/MultiMate allows breeders to search for bull proofs in the electronic database, query lists of bulls, build their own custom selection indexes and correctively mate cows in their herd. The program is updated three times per year, after each national genetic evaluation in April, August and December. Red Book Plus/MultiMate may be purchased individually, or is included as an option in Holstein COMPLETE®, as an alternative to the traditional Red Book.

Whether you currently receive the program and want to make sure you're getting the most out of it, or you've heard about it and aren't quite sure what it can do, we invite you to tune in and learn more about this powerful addition to your breeding toolbox. With questions, contact Lindsey Worden at Lworden@holstein.com or 800.952.5200, ext. 4096.
