Mature Cow Weights
How has the selection for heavier weaning and yearling weights influenced the mature size of the nation’s cow herd?
Questions: Magnitude of change? Implications of change?
![Page 18: Characterizing Change in the Beef Industry Justin W. Waggoner, Ph.D. Beef Systems Specialist Kansas State University Garden City, KS.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649ecf5503460f94bdd9a6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
How big is Today’s Cowherd?
Common logic “Mature cow weight = weight of finished offspring”
Meat Animal Research Center Germplasm evaluation program 37,000+ cows Mature Cow Weight correlated with hot carcass weight of
progeny (0.81) Progeny hot carcass weight = 0.599 * (mature cow weight)

Is there optimum ?
Tough question period…..
Factors: Environment • Available forage resources
Reproduction Marketing strategy• Sell at weaning/ retain ownership
![Page 27: Characterizing Change in the Beef Industry Justin W. Waggoner, Ph.D. Beef Systems Specialist Kansas State University Garden City, KS.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649ecf5503460f94bdd9a6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Bottom Line
1990-2009
Fed cattle Harvested at larger weights Gain weight 15% faster Require 0.42 less lbs feed/lb gain
Increased commercial beef production per cow by 17.5%
![Page 28: Characterizing Change in the Beef Industry Justin W. Waggoner, Ph.D. Beef Systems Specialist Kansas State University Garden City, KS.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649ecf5503460f94bdd9a6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Consequence
Mature weight of the nation’s cowherd has increased
1990 = 1203 lbs (1179-1228 lbs)
2009 = 1368 lbs (1346-1390 lbs)
