    Extractions: Department of the Environment and Heritage, February 2001 The purpose of all Emission Estimation Technique (EET) Manuals in this series is to assist Australian manufacturing, industrial and service facilities to report emissions of listed substances to the National Pollutant Inventory (NPI). This Manual describes the procedures and recommended approaches for estimating emissions from facilities engaged in the operation of Beef Cattle Feedlots. A beef feedlot is a confined area with watering and feeding facilities where cattle are completely hand or mechanically fed for the purpose of production (ARMCANZ, 1997). Feedlot operations consist of a number of activities including feedstock storage, feeding systems, animal housing, disposal of biological matter, waste removal/storage and waste treatment.

    Extractions: MSU Extension Beef Bulletins - 23310001 Harlan D. Ritchie Dept. of Animal Science Michigan State University Introduction The objective of this paper is to review the basics of every-day beef cattle nutrition. It will be of more value to the beginner than to the experienced cattlemen. Nevertheless, experienced producers may find it useful as a checklist for their nutritional programs. The paper will begin with general considerations and nutrient requirements and follow with a review of the three principle phases of beef production. The points covered in this paper are most applicable to the Midwestern states. It is presented in outline form in order to keep the points as brief as possible. GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS Phases of Beef Production 1.Cow-calf phase: wean 500-lb calf at 7 to 8 mos. of age. 2.Stocker (backgrounding) phase: grow calf for 4 to 6 mos.

    Extractions: Sampson McGregor Stock Farm Home Page Expected progeny differences (EPDs) have been available for use in beef cattle selection programs since the early 1970's. Advancements in computer technology and breed registries collecting vast amounts of pedigree and performance information has made the production of EPDs possible for virtually every animal within a breed. With the cost of beef cattle production continually rising relative to cattle market prices, producers are using every available piece of information to increase their bottom line. Understanding and implementing the use of EPDs in beef cattle selection programs allows producers to have more control in developing the product they have to market. However, gaining an understanding of EPDs and how they can be successfully used is no trivial task. Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs) may be used to estimate how future progeny of the subject animal will compare to progeny of other animals within the breed. The best tool the beef industry has at its disposal for making genetic progress is the Expected Progeny Difference (EPD). It has been suggested that EPDs are five to nine times more accurate than performance indexes when selecting seedstock.

    http://www.ext.nodak.edu/extpubs/ansci/beef/as1163-1.htm
    
    Extractions: Value-Based Beef Cattle Production Goals Today's beef industry is evolving toward a concept of value-based marketing which prices cattle and carcasses on individual merit rather than averages. Recognizing that consumer's wants and needs drive beef demand, those who contribute to the added value of superior products should be rewarded. Likewise, the market should penalize those responsible for producing an inferior product. Whether you are feeding a 4-H steer, an FFA beef project or are a commercial beef producer, this publication is designed to help you learn about the concepts of value-based beef cattle production and marketing. It consists of information you can use to help you take market beef animals from weaning (preconditioning) to finish. The major focus centers around producing a high quality beef end product for the consumer while adding profitability to the beef cattle enterprise.

94. Beef Cattle Frame Scores
    Several beef cattle breed associations have developed their own frame score formulas and charts which are based on average growth and development within

    Extractions: NDSU Extension Service AS-1091, May 1995 John Dhuyvetter , Area Livestock Specialist Frame scores are an objective, numerical description of cattle skeletal size which reflect the growth pattern and potential mature size of an animal. Frame score values typically range from 2 to 9 and are calculated from hip height and age. Frame scores are frequently reported as supplementary information to weight and other performance data. They can be used to project mature size, provide an indication of composition, and characterize performance potential and nutritional requirements of an animal. Considerable variation exists among cattle for frame size. Optimum frame score and desired body type will be different among production situations which differ in feed resources, breeding systems, and market endpoints. Low frame scores are descriptive of cattle which are short in stature for their age, tend to be early maturing, and finish for slaughter and mature at lighter body weights. High frame scores are indicative of cattle that are tall for their age, have a slower rate of maturity, and finish and mature at relatively heavy body weights. Rate of gain is usually higher for larger framed cattle; however, large differences in rate and efficiency of gain exist in cattle of similar size. For cattle developed under a consistent and adequate plane of nutrition for normal growth, a calculated frame score should be similar regardless of when the animal was measured. Theoretically an animal should have the same frame score throughout its life. Inconsistent environmental factors and management can alter skeletal growth rate, which may result in cattle developing slightly faster or slower than anticipated. As a result animals may increase or decrease a frame score over time depending on rate of growth.

    Extractions: Click here for more information about beef production S ince the 1980s a series of mergers and acquisitions has resulted in concentrating over 80% of the 35 million beef cattle slaughtered annually in the U.S. into the hands of four huge corporations. Many beef cattle are born and live on the range, foraging and fending for themselves for months or even years. They are not adequately protected against inclement weather, and they may die of dehydration or freeze to death. Injured, ill, or otherwise ailing animals do not receive necessary veterinary attention. One common malady afflicting beef cattle is called "cancer eye." Left untreated, the cancer eats away at the animal's eye and face, eventually producing a crater in the side of the animal's head. Accustomed to roaming unimpeded and unconstrained, range cattle are frightened and confused when humans come to round them up. Terrified animals are often injured, some so severely that they become "downed" (unable to walk or even stand). These downed animals commonly suffer for days without receiving food, water or veterinary care, and many die of neglect. Others are dragged, beaten, and pushed with tractors on their way to slaughter.

    Extractions: Linnaeus Cattle (called simply cows in vernacular usage) are domesticated ungulates , a member of the subfamily Bovinae of the family Bovidae . They are raised as livestock for meat (called beef and veal dairy products milk leather and as draught animals (pulling carts plows and the like). In some countries, such as India , they are subject to religious ceremonies and respect. It is estimated that there are 1.3 billion head of cattle in the world today Cattle were originally identified by Carolus Linnaeus as three separate species. These were Bos taurus , the European cattle, including similar types from Africa and Asia; Bos indicus , the zebu ; and the extinct Bos primigenius , the aurochs . The aurochs is ancestral to both zebu and European cattle. More recently these three have increasingly been grouped as one species, sometimes using the names Bos primigenius taurus Bos primigenius indicus and Bos primigenius primigenius . Complicating the matter is the ability of cattle to interbreed with other closely related species. Hybrid individuals and even breeds exist, not only between European cattle and zebu but also with

     Extractions: Federal grading of beef carcasses is a voluntary program, administered by U.S. Department of Agriculture, in which packers may participate at a fee that pays for the service. The official grade consists of a quality and/or yield grade. It is not mandatory that a carcass be yield graded if it is quality graded. These grades are used to divide beef carcasses into uniform groups so the product can be easily described and understand by both buyers and sellers. Quality grades in young cattle are intended to identify differences in palatability or eating satisfaction of the product. Quality grades are primarily determined by age (estimated maturity of the carcass) and intramuscular fat (marbling). Cattle are classified into maturity groups A through E, with "A" maturity cattle defined as those less than 30 months of age and "B" maturity defined as those from 30-42 months of age. It is only these two maturity groups that are eligible to be graded Prime, Choice, Select or Standard and the relationship between maturity, marbling, and grade is shown in Figure 1.
