Symposium covers marbling from all angles
Marbling can be fickle. Everything, from genetics to growth technologies and production systems, affects the way and how much intramuscular fat cattle will express. This summer an American Society of Animal Science (ASAS) symposium focused on getting the most meat quality with maximum efficiency. Daryl Tatum, Colorado State University (CSU), began by citing advantages and disadvantages of implants and beta-agonists.
‘Steer party mix’ yields top quality beef
Cattle enjoy snack foods as much as people; Herr Angus Farm, Nottingham, Pa., uses that as an advantage.
Keys may unlock cellular doors to marbling mysteries
Knowing more about marbling helps cattlemen produce the best beef. All four National Beef Quality Audits (NBQA) said consumers want more of it, yet many producers manage so as to inhibit rather than enhance marbling.
Educating the next generation
A lot of folks in the beef industry worry about where the next generation of ranchers will come from. But cattlemen with real foresight wonder about tomorrow’s consumers. Certified Angus Beef LLC recently partnered with its licensed distributor, Performance Food Group, at the Culinary Institute of Virginia (CIV). Their joint mission: to educate the next generation of chefs on preparing high-quality beef dishes that will capture future consumer demand.
Feeding Quality Forum registration opens
These are not easy times for cattle feeders. A little extra information may be just what’s needed to keep ahead of the feeding curve. That’s the focus of the 2009 Feeding Quality Forums, set for Nov. 10 in South Sioux City, Neb., and Nov. 12 in Garden City, Kan.
Full-throttle flexibility
If you can’t find the type of cattle you want to feed, create them, share the genetics and buy back the progeny to feed. Monitor results and keep improving over time. It’s all part of the plan at Panhandle Feeders, a 20,000-head Certified Angus Beef LLC (CAB) partner yard at Morrill, Neb. But the plan, unlike that of any other CAB feedlot, delivers performance and quality on a grand scale.
