Angularity scores

FRENCH type classifiers will begin scoring angularity as a trait, to satisfy the World Holstein Friesian Society recommendations.

Scoring angularity in France will improve accuracy of type merit conversions in the UK. Currently all French sires are given the same angularity score.

According to Brian Bolton, GenGen, UK agent for Sersia France, it will be Jan 1999 before there is enough data to provide a bull with an angularity score.
