The traits determined by BIA ultrasound softwareare:Ribeye Area (REA), Backfat Thickness (BF), RibeyeArea/Hundred lbs Live Weight, (REA/CWT), PercentIntramuscular Fat (%IMF), Ribeye Shape Score (RES),Stress Score (SS) and Tenderness Score (TEND)Tallgrass Beef Company Optimum Ranges – HarvestAge AnimalREA = 10-15BF = 0.2 – 0.4 inches (at yearling ultrasound)BF = 0.4 – 0.65 inches (at harvest)REA/CWT = 1.0 – 1.5 (at yearling ultrasound)REA/CWT = 1.5 – 2.0 (at harvest – dressed weightbasis)%IMF > = 3.5% + (USDA High Select or better)RES > = 0.50 + SS = < = 2.0 TEND = < + 2.5QP = High Select – High Choice YG = < + 3.9HCWT = 650 – 850 lbs.Individual traits are color codedto indicate their ranking withincontemporary group and inaccordance with Tallgrass BeefCompany Protocols.Blue color coded traits rank inthe top tier for the respectivetrait.Tan color coded traits rank in thesecond tier for the respectivetrait.Traits without a color code rankin the third tier and meet theminimum qualifications of theTallgrass protocols, but could useimprovement.Traits coded in Red Font indicateperformance below TallgrassBeef Company protocol standards.REA is not ranked since RES andREA/CWT are much better indicatorsof carcass retail yield andcutability.Code Explanation:RES = Ribeye Shape Score. Indicativeof desired shape of the ribeye muscle.Correlated to eventual Yield Grade,Cutability, and % Retail Product. Scoreranges from 0.0 to 1.0 Acceptablescore is 0.5 or greater. Ideal score is0.65 or greater.SS = Stress Score. Correlated to immune systemstrength of calf. Score ranges from 10-50. 10 = NoStress, 20 = Slight Stress, 30 = Slightly Moderate Stress,40 = Moderate Stress, 50 = Severe Stress. Impacts DTF,ADG, WDA, TCOG, Health Costs, QG and YG. Idealscore is 2.0 or less.Tend = Tenderness Score. Correlated to actual Warner-BratzlerShear Force (WB) in carcass ribeye steak at12th rib location. Correlation Coefficients betweenWB and TEND currently average 0.85 = 0.87. Scoreranges from 10-50. 10 = Very Tender, 20 = Tender,30 = Slightly Tender, 40 = Slightly Tough, 50 = Tough.Ideal score is 25 or less.
