[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 44320, member: 13"] I believe I've posted links to several articles that showed management is important to backfat and carcass. Ribeye would also be affected. Surely even you would agree that genetically similar bulls fed a hot ration on performance test for 100 days would carry more backfat and have a larger ribeye than bulls turned out on grass (plain old pasture grass) alone for 100 days? But this has nothing to do with EPDs. EPDs are a measure of how a bull's calves are expected to perform, not his own performance. [/QUOTE]
