COMPARATIVE CHARACTERISTIC OF YOUNG STOCK OF ABERDEEN-ANGUS X BLACK-MOTLEY AND CHAROLAIS CATTLE BY PRODUCTIVE QUALITIES
As a result of scientific research it has been established that at the age of 6.5-7.0 months the pre-lethal alive mass of bulls of charolais breed was higher than 6.7% in comparison with those of aberdeen-angus x black-motley breed, hence, the difference in the mass of a steaming carcass has made 42.9% (<i>Р</i> < 0.001) for the benefit of charolais breed. The lethal mass of bulls of charolais breed has made 139.3 kg (<i>Р</i> < 0.001), which is by 40.8 kg more than this parameter for bulls of aberdeen-angus x black-motley breeds. By quantitative and qualitative indicators the meat of bulls of meat breed, which have been brought up according to the “cow - calf” system up to an alive mass of 210-230 kg, lays claim to a category of “milk veal” and is represented by perspective raw material for production of children's nutrition.
