[QUOTE="KHereford, post: 930544, member: 18150"] I know a Hereford ranch that RFI (residual feed intake) test many or I think all there heifers and bulls. M and M herefords is there name and they do it at Green Springs Bull test with grow safe bunks. We take a sample (3 or 4) bulls and put them on test to see how they stack up against other breeders and what different genetics are more efficent. This year we had the high gaining and highest efficiency bull. As far as measuring mature cows Im not sure of anyone doing it but I bet there are some studies on it. [/QUOTE]
