Effect of sire and environment on growth performance of grade-2 Brahman calves

ABSTRACT The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of sire and environment on growth performance of grade-2 Brahman calves. A total of 70 grade-2 Brahman calves produced from 6 sires (14BR0043, 7BR-524, 14BR0040, 7BR-527, 14BR0041, 7BR-522) were included to study the effect on growth...
