[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4628"] You are right in your assumption that breeding for a caesarean section isn't an option yet in North America. That's what happens when you are as heavily subsidised as the Europeans are. The cost of a c-section is no big deal. Breeding for calving problems won't happen at this place. > if its growth and calving ease you > are concerned with most, go for > the piedmontese, or maybe some > French Limousin with enough double > muscing. they'll do very well on a > small scale feedlot. if you don't > care so much about calving ease > (if you're will to pay for > caesarian) then go with Belgian > blue, but i don't think that will > be an option just yet in th US.
