[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 516312, member: 1604"] Just voicing an opinion here, but I'd say offhand the [b]average[/b] cattleman in the U.S. doesn't give a hoot in he!! about marbling. Not saying he's doing wrong or right,,,,,,,,but he wants his calves to push down hard on the scales at sale time, with the least amount of expense involved to get him there. When the packers start paying an equitable amount for a better carcass, the product will show up on the dock. Around here guys have been using whole corn to creep calves for generations with no extra dollars on their checks. Is this research supposed to be some kind of revelation? Or are the CAB folks having a hard time finding carcasses that will hit the target? Regardless of "genetic merit"? [/QUOTE]
