Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine if body measurement traits like weight and size could be used to select for better feed efficiency and carcass qualities in Japanese Black steers.
- The research involved analyzing data from 4,578 steers, assessing genetic parameters, and identifying correlations between body traits, feed efficiency, and carcass traits.
- Findings indicated that selecting based on certain body measurements could improve carcass weight and residual gain but had minimal impact on feed efficiency and marbling quality.
