[QUOTE="Angus Guy, post: 182356, member: 1841"] Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. Is this talk about the frame scores going to 2-3s not taking us back to the 1950's and 60's? Personally I think our frame scores and finished weights are just about right (FS4.5-5 and 1150-1250#). My feeling is we need to optimize rate of gain, feed conversion, yeild grade, and minimize costs to get the right product to the consumer. If this is grass-fed so be it. The only real problem I have with grass-fed is how can I do it with the type of climate that I live in. If some of you don't think South America is going to be able to compete with us in world beef market you are dead wrong. They have the genetics, the feed, and the know how. The one thing they lack is the shipping infastructor which is changing rapidly. [/QUOTE]
