| How to enroll your POLYPAY flock into NSIP? |
Contact us by Email: ovineepd@aol.com We will send you a blank Excel inventory spreadsheet for you to submit your data to us by the April 15, 2007 deadline. Polypay offers two across flock runs annually. One in the spring (4/15) and one in the fall (10/15). |
||
| How much does it cost? | There is an annual flock fee of $100.00 in addition to a $1.75/head animal charge for all-mature breeding sheep listed in your inventory as active at time of data submission. We will bill you at this time. Payment must be received before EPDs will be mailed. | ||
| What if I don't have a computer or the Excel program? |
We strongly urge that you get access to them. You are the person best qualified to accurately enter your own data. Often libraries, extension offices, or businesses have these tools available. We can enter data for breeders but will charge for it at the fee of $20.00/hour. |
||
| What traits will I receive EPDs back on? |
Weaning Weight (60 day) Post Weaning Weight Gain (60-120 days) Maternal Milk Milk + Gain (Total Maternal) % Lambcrop |
||
| I am new to this, who will help me understand my data? | We can schedule a conference over the phone to assist you, we can pull up your file and talk about your sheep with you. | ||
| What if I have questions not posted here? |
