In various tests made all over the world, the
Braunvieh cattle showed its excellent competitive position. The U.S. Meat Animal
Research Center, Clay Center, Nebraska, for instance, showed in a comparative
test that Braunvieh crossbreds established themselves by comparison with
contemporary breeds as the best balanced breed in the test from calving to
carcass. The calving ease, early puberty, fertility, milk production, efficiency
and growth ability are vital economic traits that Braunvieh offers to the profit
conscious cowman searching for superior cow herd productivity.
Early maturity and growth ensures more
pregnant females. The four graphs below prove that Braunvieh females, compared
with the leading European and English crossed females excel in these vitally
important economic traits.
Feedlot efficiency and carcass
quality—two important economic traits that guarantee profit. Braunvieh crossed
steers compared to the other leading carcass breeds, excelled in these two
important economic areas.
The superiority of the Braunvieh female is
exemplified in the graphs below. Compared to her counterparts in the areas of
calving ease, maternal traits and efficiency, she graphically demonstrates her
ability to contribute to the beef industry.
