Missouri beef cattle improvement programs : on-the-farm performance testing : preweaning phase, plan A
Abstract
"The Missouri Beef Cattle Performance Testing Program is designed to help improve Missouri beef cattle in both quality and growth through breeding and selection. The phases of this program are available to beef cattle breeders who may use them to check each animal's performance from birth until it is added to a herd or slaughtered. The program has flexibility and will be helpful to both purebred and commercial cattlemen in their selection and breeding programs. It is most useful in evaluating individual animals within a herd. It is not designed for the purpose of comparing one herd with another herd or one breed with another breed, because the environmental conditions will vary from herd to herd."--Page 1.
