The tables below contain comparisons among breeds based on reports by the U. S. Meat Animal Research Center (MARC), Clay Center, Nebraska. These estimates apply under conditions similar to those at the Center. Calves at MARC are weaned in the fall so the post-weaning feeding period is over winter. This probably depresses yearling weight of Bos indicus-derivative breeds relative to British and Continental breeds
