AJSA Regional And National Junior Cattlemen's Practice Test

ASA's online Registry called Herdbook. Which organization maintains it?

American Simmental Association Beef Improvement Federation American Angus Association Hereford Association

Correct Answer:

American Simmental Association

Explanation:

Registries for a breed are kept by the breed’s official association. For Simmental cattle, that is the American Simmental Association, which runs the online Herdbook. This Herdbook is a centralized database of registered animals, recording pedigrees, transfers, and performance data to ensure accurate lineage and eligibility for registration. The other organizations listed are either associated with different breeds or serve broader roles (like a federation of breed associations) and do not maintain the Simmental Herdbook. So the American Simmental Association is the organization responsible for maintaining it.
