Answer to Question 1

The consumer wants beef that is tender, flavorful, and affordable. The consumer does not want cuts of meat that have a lot of excess fat. Consumers also want cuts that are not too large in size and that one person can consume in a meal. The packer wants animals that weigh between 600 and 700 pounds because they are more easily managed in the cutting room and they provide the size of cuts that the consumer wants. The producer wants an animal that is reproductively efficient, has high growthability, and is efficient in feed conversion.
