Data collected on 43 steers (25 predominantly Hereford breeding (H) and 18 predominantly Angus breeding (A)) were used to generate equations to predict total body composition of Angus and Hereford steers from measurements obtained at slaughter. Empty body fat (ether extract, EBF), kg was predicted from 9–11 rib cut fat (ether extract, RF), kg and warm carcass weight (WCW), kg by the following: H — steers, EBF = − 11.49 + 44.08 RF + 0.22 WCW (R2 = 0.96, CV = 10.07%) and A — steers, EBF = − 49.30 + 31.30 RF + 0.50 WCW (R2 = 0.94, CV = 9.40%). Total empty body energy (EBE) (Mcal) was predicted from 9–11 rib cut energy (RE, Mcal) and WCW (kg) by the following: H — steers, EBE = − 252.6 + 28.85 RE + 4.26 WCW (R2 = 0.94, CV = 10.15%) and A — steers, EBE = − 434.3 + 25.48 RE + 5.64 WCW (R2 = 0.94, CV = 8.02%). Prediction of EBF and EBE from RF and RE, respectively, differed (P = 0.05) between breeds whereas prediction from WCW did not. For all steers, EBF, kg and EBE, Mcal, respectively, were predicted from WCW, kg, by the following: EBF = − 63.71 + 0.704 WCW (r2 = 0.91, CV = 12.44%) and EBE = − 537.7 + 7.377 WCW (r2 = 0.92, CV = 10.0%). Body protein (BP), kg was predicted from WCW, kg by the following: H — steers, BP = 23.31 + 0.154 WCW (r2 = 0.83, CV = 6.04%) and A — steers, BP = 11.32 + 0.195 WCW (r2 = 0.93, CV = 5.29%). Prediction of BP was not significantly improved by the inclusion of 9–11 rib protein in the equation with WCW. Prediction of body water and ash from weights of rib cut water and ash, respectively, and warm carcass weight were unacceptable. Non-linear relationships between rib cut component weights and corresponding empty body weights as well as between WCW and empty body component weights were generally not significant (P = 0.05). Inclusion of kidney and pelvic fat weight in these equations did not greatly improve their accuracy.

Different Levels

1. Thirty-three cross-bred lambs were given reconstituted dried whole cow's milk from 1 week of age at different levels of intake and at different frequencies of feeding.2. Feeding frequency had no effect on live-weight gain, N retention or total body composition.3. Lambs given two feeds daily had significantly heavier abomasums than pair-fed lambs given six feeds daily.4. The weights of fat, protein (N x 6.25) and water in the body were closely related to empty body weight; body composition (% of empty body) was not significantly affected by the level of milk intake or by the rate of growth.5. Live-weight gain was closely related to energy intake (r = +0.99) and to N retention (r = +0.97). A live-weight gain of 100 g was associated with an intake of 511 kcal and a N retention of 2.28 g N.
