Packers & Grids
| MAXIMIZING
the NET RETURN for
individual CATTLE being
sold REQUIRES the CATTLE
be SOLD on the most
appropriate GRID. The
most appropriate GRID
can be DETERMINED through
the COMBINATION of
previously documented HERD HISTORY,
and through the SKILL of
the Feeders in ANALYZING
the current MARKET
potential when the cattle are sold.
Documented HERD HISTORY can initially come from Customer Genetic Evaluation Trial data, or later, from the Customer Decision Support System. This INFORMATION will be made AVAILABLE to the Feeders so they can OPTIMIZE the NET RETURN to the owner of the cattle. A PACKER REQUIREMENT will be to COLLECT and to PROVIDE individual carcass INFORMATION and individual carcass VALUES. At the present time, we have access to these grids and packers.
