[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1244356, member: 694"] This even applies to the hamburger market as well. You now have box meat being marketed and graded as ground sirloin or chuck as well. Now at the feedlot that calf will be put with a group of peers that will grade. They will be micro chipped and the lot will know the gain % on days of feed. Every time that calf sticks his head in the feed trough it is read. The calf will be graded by ultra sound while on feed and then again on the rail. As Highgrit stated you can not beat a man at his game. This is down to a science and has been for years. The order buyer is filling an order that his employer wants not buying just anything you haul to the barn. Now there are buyers for low yield and dressing cattle as well for chili, dog or cat food. No one should want to be in this group. This is simple economics 101 the buyer will pay according what he can make off the product after his input cost and profit margins based on demand. [/QUOTE]
