[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 20058, member: 13"] Amazed said "With all due respect that's a comment especially common in Angus circles. The "more marbling/the better the beef" is too simplistic of an approach for an entire industry to take." Check out the link I've provided to Ollie. Marbled beef is more likely to be tender. Consumers prefer marbled beef. Why is that so hard? Obviously, marbling is not everything, but a study in Hawaii showed high marbling cattle were no less fertile than their low marbling sisters. Marbling is important in my breeding program and my bulls gain very well on test, so it apparently doesn't hurt feed efficiency. Why would you not want to improve the marbling in your herd? I'm serious about that question. [/QUOTE]
