Prime Results

In March 2019, 31 Steers and Heifers were sold to National Beef. They graded 100% Choice and 58% Prime. All graded YG 1,2 and 3. Average weight was only 1190 due to tough feedlot conditions due to our long wet winter. The average Prime results with this feedlot is 8%. This shows that it is GENETICS not just weight that drive carcass value. Top 5% Marbling EPDs makes a difference!
