Item description from seller

Neuware - Exceptional beef genetics create opportunity-but profitable Piedmontese cattle farming requires much more than impressive muscle. Known for distinctive muscular development, high lean-meat yield, fine bone, and valuable carcass characteristics, Piedmontese cattle offer beef producers an unusual combination of genetics and production potential. Piedmontese Cattle Farmers Handbook is a practical guide for farmers, breeders, and beef producers who want to turn the breed's biological strengths into dependable farm performance. Inside, you'll discover how to: - Understand Piedmontese breed characteristics and myostatin genetics- Learn how the MSTN gene influences muscle development and lean yield- Select productive cows, replacement heifers, and breeding bulls- Use genetic testing, pedigrees, parentage, and performance records- Develop purposeful purebred and crossbreeding programs- Manage fertility, breeding seasons, pregnancy, and bull performance- Prepare for calving and protect newborn calves- Build practical nutrition and body-condition programs- Improve grazing, pasture use, forage planning, and drought preparation- Strengthen herd health, parasite control, vaccination, and biosecurity- Manage fencing, housing, handling facilities, and identification- Understand finishing, carcass yield, tenderness, and market readiness- Use carcass feedback to guide herd improvement- Market beef, breeding cattle, and genetics more effectively- Control costs and build a more profitable cattle enterprise The book explains why Piedmontese muscularity should never be considered in isolation. Fertility, soundness, calving performance, temperament, nutrition, health, longevity, and adaptation remain essential to a functional herd. For beef producers, it also explores lean growth, dressing percentage, ribeye development, marbling, tenderness, finishing strategies, direct marketing, and the importance of selling into markets that recognize the value being produced. Whether your goal is purebred breeding, commercial crossbreeding, pasture-based beef, or premium direct marketing, Piedmontese Cattle Farmers Handbook provides a practical framework for connecting genetics, cattle management, and farm profitability.…
