[QUOTE="Backbone Ranch, post: 1589497, member: 20754"] We have been producing grass-fed beef for close to a decade now, and regardless of the breed, you need to focus on genetics that are a bit more moderate framed, easy fleshing, with higher marbling. You do not need to chase the highest growth bulls for to be successful at grass-finishing. Grass-fed beef is naturally leaner than grain-fed beef, but we have steers that will grade choice on grass at 2 years of age. We raise Murray Greys and have been selectively breeding for tenderness and marbling genes, amongst other things such as fertility, phenotype, disposition, etc. I have to say that for our operation, they have been the perfect fit.
