[QUOTE="usernametaken, post: 428882, member: 6820"] Point taken BC. I guess I just find it frustrating that there seems to be a set standard of what the buyers want that I'm not sure is actually getting them what they want. I suppose they have come up with these standards over time as a way to get more of what they want when looking at volume, but it seems to deter improvements and denies regional differences. I could be all wet, but if I was looking for good meat, how the cow is raised and genetics ( which must be colorblind) would be the questions I would want to know. Is there a way for the small producer to overcome set standards of selection by buyers ? The obvious one is of course direct sales off the farm but anything else ? How does a man go and show a buyer that he might have better tasting, tenderer beef with a competive carcass size and weight if he is a small fish in the pond ? Do you have the opportunity to talk to buyers at a sell ? untaken [/QUOTE]
