Meat quality and the quantity of edible portion are basic factors used to assess carcass merit. However, the relative emphasis to be placed on quality and quantity are subject to change with changing market demands. Not all beef producers need complete carcass data. Careful thought should be given to the specific information that..."

For this reason, it serves no purpose to do tick counts on animals that are not exposed to tick infestation. ==3.10.2 Guidelines== a. Tick counts should be done on groups of animals that are kept in their natural environment (e.g. natural pastures), where they are exposed to ticks. (The..."

Animal health is an increasingly important subject for beef recording schemes. Diseases may affect level of production, shorten length of productive life of animals and be the cause of confiscation of parts or of the whole carcass. Confiscation may be based on the risk to consumers’ health and/or on the effect on the quality of carcass or meat. In all case..."

Clearly defined procedures are a prerequisite in the recording of feed intakes and feed efficiencies. The ultimate objective, however, is to generate EBVs having removed non-genetic variation as much as is possible. Standardizing the test procedures within..."

Its usefulness in beef cattle has been well demonstrated e.g. Brethour (1994), Wilson et al. (1998). Ultrasound scanning has been used since the late 1980’s in many beef cattle breeding programs to overcome the inherent difficulty of recording carca..."

Linear scoring reveals part of the animal’s economic value and, if the scored traits are heritable, part of its genetic value. Economic and environmental conditions vary over time and between countries so the economic importance of each scored trait may differ depending on the circumstances. The specific re..."

The length of the life of an animal can be calculated from its life history data as any survival trait may be defined as the length of time between two events. Longevity may be measured, from birth or from onset of production to the date of measuremen..."
