Extending the feeding period beyond 8.0 mm of subcutaneous fat reduces feed efficiency without improving meat colour and tenderness of non-implanted feedlot steers

The effect of extending the pen-feeding period of non-implanted feedlot steers beyond the 8.0 mm fat thickness (FT) endpoint on performance, carcass and meat traits was evaluated. Sixty-four medium-sized British steers (308 ± 26 kg) were grouped into four blocks by weight and housed in 16 pens. Pens...
