Body weight at yearling stage and above may be correlated with the future production and reproduction potential of the cattle. This may act as an indicator for selecting animals early in their life even before they actually manifest these traits. Correlation between different traits help us in suggesting breeding plans where some economically important trait are identified and their relationship between some less important traits are established, thereby it helps in detection of the degree of charge manifested by a character when the other character is changed by a unit.
