Carcass and beef color characteristics of three biological types of cattle grazing cool-season forages supplemented with soyhulls

Soyhull supplementation to divergent biological types of cattle on forage-based systems was studied to determine the impact on carcass and color characteristics. Weaned calves ( n=107) biologically classified as large-, medium-, or small-framed and intermediate rate of maturing were allocated to thr...

Zusammenfassung:	Soyhull supplementation to divergent biological types of cattle on forage-based systems was studied to determine the impact on carcass and color characteristics. Weaned calves ( n=107) biologically classified as large-, medium-, or small-framed and intermediate rate of maturing were allocated to three cool-season grazing systems consisting of either orchardgrass pasture or fescue pasture, each with soyhull supplementation, or fescue pasture with no supplementation as a control. Supplementing cattle with soyhulls allowed for heavier ( P
