Associations among growth, scrotal circumference, and visual score of beef cattle in performance tests on pasture or in feedlots

Associations among growth, scrotal circumference, and visual score of beef cattle in performance tests on pasture or in feedlots

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate associations among final weight (FW), average daily gain (ADG), scrotal circumference (SC), and visual score (VS) of beef cattle in performance tests on pasture or in feedlots. Genetic parameters for FW, ADG, SC, and VS of young Nellore bulls performance-tested...
