The objective of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of external components and discard fat of young steers with two different sexual conditions and two different genotypes, finished in feedlot. Average age and weight of the animals at the beginning of the experimental period were 12 months and 267.0 kg, respectively. The steers were in feedlot until reaching pre-established slaughter weight of 400 kg. Diet contained roughage:concentrate ratio of 50:50, on dry matter basis, with 10% crude protein. It […]

The objective of this trial was to evaluate the components of non integrate body components of carcass of two categories, steers (slaughtered at 22.8 months old) and young steers (slaughtered at 15.2 months old), from two genetic groups, 5/8 Charolais (CH) 3/8 Nellore (NE) and 5/8NE 3/8CH, and to evaluate the relationship among the variables studied. The animals were fedlot finished until reaching 430 kg. The diet, roughage:concentrate ratio of 60:40 (dry matter basis), contained 10.25% crude protein and 3.18 […]
