The Mature Cow Weight EBV would be an indicator of: Cow feed requirements - until feed efficiency EBVs are available, many breeders may try to reduce the mature size of their breeding cows while maximising the growth to say 600 days of their yearling slaughter animals; Mature steer size - breeders of heavy steers may look for large mature weight EBVs - particularly if looking at long term feeding programs. Breeders, of course, have striven through the centuries to correct some of the deficiencies that were prevalent in this Tees River stock, and at the same time to retain the most valued characteristics that the breed possessed.
