Comparison of the growth and carcass composition of purebred Angus and crossbred Hereford—Angus and Friesian—Angus steers
View through CrossRef
Growth and carcass composition of purebred Angus steers and crossbred Hereford—Angus and Friesian—Angus steers were compared. Friesian—Angus had the heaviest slaughter and carcass weights and produced more trimmed boneless meat than the other two breeds. Hereford—Angus produced less trimmed boneless meat than Friesian—Angus, although differences were not significant. Purebred Angus produced less saleable meat than the crossbreeds.
