[QUOTE="Anguscollegekid, post: 405464, member: 6088"] I am doing the senior beef interviews at our fair this year and will also be helping my club practice with the younger kids. This is what I have for senior questions, any thoughts, suggestions, or additional ideas? Thanks... 1) What are quality and yield grade? 2) Market price for fat steers 3) Cost per pound of gain-how is calculated, what is an efficient price 4) Why did you select the steer you did? 5) What advantages does its breeding have? 6) How will you fit your steer? 7) If your steer is walking too fast, what can you do to slow it down? 8) If your steer has a high topline, how can you fix that during the show? 9) If your steer’s topline sags, how can you fix that during the show? 10) If your steer isn’t quite finished, what can you do with your steer’s head while the judge is feeling the steer? 11) What did you feed your steer and why did you choose that ration? 12) What affects ribeye size? 13) What backfat measurement, REA, quality grade, and yield grade do you want? 14) What effect do you think the demand for ethanol will have on feeding cattle? 15) If your steer was to be sold on a carcass grid, which ones would he qualify for and do best on? 16) What are your steer’s strengths and weaknesses? 17) What challenges did you face this year? 18) Why should someone eat beef? 19) Why should someone buy your steer at the auction? 20) Is BSE contagious between animals? 21) True or False-Alfalfa and Barley make a great finishing ration. 22) What are E.P.D.s used for? a. If selling by the pound, what E.P.D. is especially important? b. If selling your calves on a carcass grid, what E.P.D.s are important? 23) Where should you look for muscling in cattle? 24) What percentage of an animal’s bodyweight should they be eating in pounds of feed?
