As the demand for high-quality meat products continues to rise, breeders are focusing on improving meat eating quality through selective breeding. This includes factors such as tenderness, flavour, and overall palatability.
Efficient feed conversion and maternal efficiency are critical factors in maximising profitability for livestock producers. By selecting for animals with superior feed conversion rates and maternal traits, breeders can optimise resource utilisation and increase the overall productivity of their operations.
