Extract

The purpose of this experiment is to compare, under identical rearing and management conditions the performance of steers of certain dairy and dual-purpose breeds with steers by beef bulls out of these same breeds.

The animals are reared, fattened and sold to the best advantage at reasonable weights and condition, and the carcasses examined and as much information obtained on carcass weights and measurements as the slaughtering and disposal conditions allow.
