- More accurate - reduces error variance as it shrinks the values towards the means.

o When there is a lot of unexplained variation in a trial, BLUEs will be spread out in both directions from high to low away from the trial mean but BLUPs will not which is more accurate.

o If the mean heritability is very low, all of the BLUPs will be shrunk toward the mean and will have the same value, which is the trial mean, more accurate.
