Type Evaluation Program

Type evaluation (also known as Classification) is a comparison of the individual animal (and its parts) with the ideal Canadian Boer Goat – according to the current CMGA Scorecard and current CMGA Boer Breed Standards. This comparison is done by a licensed CMGA Evaluator on farm. The breeder is provided with an official form, indicating a linear score between 1 and 9 for each of the type traits, with a final score ranking the animal as compared to the ideal: a score of 90 and over is considered Excellent (EX), 85-89 is Very Good (VG), 80-84 is Good+ (G+), 75-79 is Good (G), and 70-74 is Fair (F).

Congratulations to all of the participants in the 2011 Type Evaluation Program. Bucks and does receiving a minimum of 85 (Very Good) are listed HERE and in the Winter 2012 issue of the Canadian Meat Goat Journal.
