• 22:46, 25 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page 3.11. Carcass Assessments (Created page with "=3.11 Carcass assessments= The ultimate goal of all beef cattle production systems is to efficiently produce a high yield of palatable beef. 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...")
• 22:38, 25 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page 3.10. Tick Count Recording (Created page with "=3.10 Tick count recording= ==3.10.1 Management aspects== The aim with the recording of tick counts is the evaluation of the genetic variation between animals for tick susceptibility. 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...")
• 22:18, 25 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page 3.9. Health Traits (Created page with "3.9 Health traits 3.9.1 General Healthiness of the animals is an essential prerequisite for any production system. 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...")
• 21:59, 25 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page 3.8. Test period feeding and test arrangements (Created page with "=3.8 Test period feeding and test arrangements= ==3.8.1 Feed intake== Recording feed intake and the calculation of EBV’s for feed conversion efficiency or Net Feed Efficiency is a goal of many breeding programmes. 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...")
• 05:28, 23 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page 3.7. Ultrasound Measurements (Created page with "=3.7 Ultrasound measurements= ==3.7.1 Introduction== Real time ultrasound imaging equipment to record carcass characteristics in live animals for livestock improvement programs has been in use for more than two decades. 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...")
• 05:38, 20 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page 3.6. Live animal assessments (Created page with "=3.6 Live animal assessments= ==3.6.1 Assessment of muscularity== Linear scoring is a technique which allows a systematic description of an animal’s morphology. 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...")
• 05:02, 20 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page 3.5. Live Animal Weights (Created page with "=3.5 Live animal weights= The collection of live animal weights is critical to the analysis of productivity in the beef herd. Typical weights collected by producers are birth, weaning and yearling weights. It is important that these weights are collected consistently to ensure an informative analysis. Animals are typically weighed using suspension scales or electronic load cells. It is important to ensure that the weighing equipment particularly mobile scales are suitab...")
• 04:56, 20 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page 3.4. Longevity Traits (Created page with "=3.4 Longevity traits= ==3.4.1 General== Longevity is an essential part of any breeding goal, reflecting the ability of an animal to cope successfully with the environmental conditions that arise in the production system. 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...")
• 01:32, 8 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page Category:3.3 Reproduction and fertility of males and females (Created page with "=3.3 Reproduction and fertility of male and females= ==3.3.1 Introduction== Fertility is the most important economic trait in beef cattle. The recording and use of reproductive traits are of major importance in beef cattle breeding because they are directly connected with the birth of animals and the cycle in which animals are born. Environmental effects have a significant impact on reproductive performances, for example season of breeding and diseases. Fertility also...")
• 01:03, 8 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page Category:3.2 Life History (Created page with "=3.2 Life history= ==3.2.1 Introduction== Life history refers to the full cycle of an animal’s reproductive and productive herd life. There are many more breeding females and young animals destined for beef production than breeding males. Efficient beef production depends upon three component elements, female reproduction, viability and growth of the young and culled female production. In the production system, the breeding male may be regarded as an overhead. The r...")
• 00:59, 8 March 2023 Rbanks talk contribs created page Category:3.1 Identification (Created page with "=3.1 Identification= ==3.1.1 Animals== Animal identification is outlined in detail in section 1.1. of ICAR’s International Agreement on Recording Practices. The following chapter therefore only provides a brief overview on the most important aspects for identification issues. More details can be found in the relevant International Agreement. Having decided on which performance traits are to be measured, it is then vital that a system is adopted that successfully recor...")
