Comparison of 2 growth patterns during the growing period in fattening bulls. 1. animal performances
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 November 2017
Extract
Beef meat in Belgium is mainly produced from growing fattening bulls. In the usual technique, the average daily gain is about 1.0 kg/day during the growing period while it is about 1.4 to 1.5 kg/d during the fattening period (Clinquart et al., 1991). The aim of the present trial was to study another growth curve characterized by a low growth rate during the growing period and to assess the effects in terms of coipensatory growth during the fattening period.
