As MateSel optimises the genetic merit of the mating based on the nominated $Index, EBV and pedigree information, MateSel can only be utilised by Angus Australia members which are enrolled in TACE. Additionally, it will only be available for the use with registered animals which have EBVs and $Index values available. 

Please note, MateSel is currently only able to operate on windows computers. If you operate a MacOs computer (MacBook or iMac) you will need to consider using tools like Parellels, which allow you to operate windows only software on your MacOs computer. If you are operating a MacOs computer and would like to consider using MateSel, please notify the extension team at Angus Australia at extension@angusaustralia.com.au. We can assist you by providing a demonstration of the tool virtually through a Teams meeting.

Free for the 2025 Spring Mating Season
To support members in exploring this innovative tool, MateSel is free to use for the upcoming 2025 spring mating season. From 2026, it will be offered as a fee-for-service product. 

This is a valuable opportunity to try MateSel and see how this technology can enhance your herd’s genetic progress—whether you’re targeting specific traits or seeking balanced, long-term improvement.
