[QUOTE="novatech, post: 618643, member: 5494"] I agree. But isn't Net Feed Efficiency? Here is another ranch that has been using the same feeders for several years. He does the DNA testing as well. You may note that he has reduced the frame size of his cattle as well, if you read all about his program. [url=http://www.kallionfarms.com/program.html]http://www.kallionfarms.com/program.html[/url] I do not think anybody other than seedstock producers would introduce these tests into their operations directly. But as Knersie said you can start with a bull. You should also note those that have spent the money and done the breeding to generate these highly efficient bulls do not give them away. I also believe that implementing some sort of selection now may very well be the edge needed to continue cattle business. It will take many years for the dribble down effect to have influence on the commercial producer. [/QUOTE]
