Cornell All Forage Bull Test 112 Day Report

The bulls on the Cornell All Forage Bull Test were weighed on May 6 (see report at http://beefcattle.ansci.cornell.edu/eventsprograms/cornell-all-forage-bull-test/). Over 112 days on test the bulls have gained 1.9 lb/day, with an average weight per day of age at 2.0 lb. The test concludes with weights taken on consecutive days, June 3 & 4. At that time carcass ultrasound will be measured and breeding soundness exams conducted.
