Analýza masné užitkovosti vybraných plemen masného skotu
Ovčáček, Jindřich
The aim of the bachelor thesis was to analyse selected breeds for meat performance parameters in the Czech Republic. The analysed breeds Aberdeen angus, Hereford, Charolais and Meat Simmental were measured during the year for individual meat performance parameters such as birth weight, weight at 120 and 210 days, gain up to 120 days, gain up to 210 days, gain between 120 and 210 days, slaughter weight, average gain to age at slaughter, total gain and carcass. These results were then compared between breeds and the economics of breeding selected beef cattle breeds were also determined from these data. The result showed that breed has an effect on meat performance, with the Charolais and Meat Simmental breeds performing best and the Aberdeen Angus and Hereford breeds performing worst in the comparison between breeds. Sex within breed was also found to influence meat yield, with bulls of all breeds studied achieving higher meat yields than heifers.
