[QUOTE="dun, post: 830283, member: 34"] Depends on the market you're trying to reach. Too much RE is just as bad as too little, marbeling can be carried to extremes. We are seriously in the carcass improvement phase now but that didn;t just start. It didn;t have as heavy an influence in years past but it was alwasy a consideration even while trying to get cows that performed acceptably on HE fescue. That's all part of the balance and optimum. But as has been said many times before, your results may vary. What works on one farm with one managment may be a total bust on another. Our cows if moved to an environement that had good grass and no endophyte might turn out to be overly fat slackards just as cows that perform well for 3waycross purtnear died when moved to fescue.
