Defining Feed Efficiency in Beef Cattle
Most breeding programs have focused on improving economically relevant output traits such as growth, carcass quality and fertility to enhance the economic viability of beef production systems. Generally absent from current breeding programs in the U.S. are avenues for exploiting genetic variation in feed efficiency, even though reductions in feed inputs would substantially improve profitability...
متن کاملMolecular basis for residual feed intake in beef cattle.
Feed provision is one of the greatest costs of beef production and, with the increasing costs of feed, will remain so for the foreseeable future. Improvement in efficiency has the potential to not only increase profits for cattle producers, but also to decrease the environmental footprint of beef cattle production. Both are important in addressing the challenges of increasing feed costs and lan...
متن کاملGene set enrichment analysis for feed efficiency in beef cattle
Selection for improved feed efficiency in cattle would decrease the amount of feed consumed for the same or greater levels of production resulting in enhanced profitability and sustainability. Selection for feed efficient cattle has been hampered by a lack of phenotypic data on feed intake and weights from cattle in production due to the cost and difficulty in collecting these data. The aim of ...
متن کاملCosts and Benefits of Beef Cattle Fattening Schemes in some Selected Areas of North West Tanzania
This study highlights the costs and benefits of indigenous beef cattle fattening schemes in Shinyanga Urban and Kishapu Districts in Tanzania. Specifically, in this study the net profit (NP) for fatteners between beef cattle fattening schemes has been determined. The schemes were divided into two main categories, scheme 1 in which the animals were fed on cottonseed hulls (CSHL) based diets and ...
متن کاملGenetic improvement in feed efficiency in beef cattle
Net feed conversion efficiency (NFCE) describes whether an animal eats more or less feed than expected for its size and growth rate. Early results from the Trangie NFCE Project, and from the Beef CRC, show that considerable variation in NFCE exists within each of the British breeds tested and is moderately heritable. Estimates of heritability for average daily gain, 365-day weight, feed intake,...
