Bioeconomic evaluation of embryo transfer in beef production systems: I. Description of a biological model for steer production.

Journal of animal science - 1 Apr 1992

Abstract excerpt

Concepts used to derive a deterministic model for evaluating embryo transfer for commercial steer production taking into consideration genetic merit for growth and mature size, herd feed supply, and recipient maternal environment are discussed. Genetic potential of an embryo is used to derive optimal growth rates that can be sustained by available herd feed per animal per day. Equations are provided for various...
