Abstract

"Quality," in the context it will be discussed here, includes all of the factors that affect value/desirability of U.S. slaughter cattle (steers/heifers slaughtered at 9 to 42 months of age, immediately following a period of 90 to 300 days of high-concentrate feeding) in terms of the value/desirability of their carcasses and dress-off/offal items.
