Heifers would be expected to produce Choice carcasses at live weights of about pounds. Number 1 muscled cattle show predominant beef breeding.
They are moderately thick and full in the forearm and gaskin, with a well-rounded appearance through the back and loin and moderate width between the legs both front and rear. Cattle show this thickness with a slightly thin covering of fat, but that cover may vary.
Number 2 muscled cattle show a high proportion of beef breeding. A slight degree of dairy breeding also may be detected.
They are slightly thick and full in the forearm and gaskin. They show a rounded appearance through the back and loin with slight width between the front and rear legs. Like the Number 1s, the Number 2s show this thickness with a slightly thin covering of fat which may vary. Number 3 muscled cattle are thrifty and thin through the forequarter and the middle part of the rounds. The forearm and gaskin are thin, and the back and loin have a sunken appearance.
The legs are closely set. Number 4 muscled cattle are still thrifty, but they have less thickness that the minimum requirements for the Number 3 grade. Inferior grade There is one final grade - Inferior- which includes cattle that are unthrifty and are not expected to perform normally in their present state. What is the slide when selling cattle?
Therefore, to ensure fair market value upon deliv ery, an adjustment of the sale price is often necessary. What is the live weight of cattle? During this time they reach a weight of between and pounds.
Once they have reached this weight they are sold to special cattle breeders who bring the calves up to a mast weight of between and pounds over the next 2 to 4 months. How many is a bushel? How much is weight in kilograms? Also called cental, short hundredweight. A unit of weight in the British Imperial System equal to pounds How do you calculate LTL? A shipment's density is one factor that determines LTL freight rates.
Typically, CWT rates will use the highest number of the actual weight and the cube weight. Cube weight is the total cubic feet of a shipment multiplied by 10 lbs.
The next class is a more moderate conditioned group of cows called "Boners" or "Boning Utility. Many well-nourished commercial beef cows would be graded "Boners. In general, these are expected to be lower in dressing percentage than fleshier cows and more easily bruised in transport than cows in better body condition. Leans and Lights are nearly always lower in price per pound than are the Boners and the Breakers. Also, thin cows are more susceptible to bruising while in transit to market and to the harvest plant.
Therefore, more trim loss is likely to occur with thin cull cows than with those in better body condition. From a producer standpoint, when selling cull cows, it is generally more profitable to feed the Leans and Lights up to get to Boners.
It is generally not economical for a producer to feed a cull cow up to the Breakers class as the price differential between them and Boners is usually small.
The most common grades, in order of the least amount of marbling to the greatest amount of marbling are: Canner, Cutter, Utility, and Commercial. Younger aged cows 30 months or less may also reach the Standard, Select or Choice grade.
