| 00-16150 | United States Standards for Grades of Feeder Cattle | Notice | The Agricultural Marketing Service is changing the official U.S. standards for grades of feeder cattle. The changes adjust the minimum requirements for the muscle thickness grades and increase the number of grades from three to four to accommodate thicker muscled cattle and reflect current marketing practices. Also, the frame size grades are updated (increased minimum weights) to reflect the genetic changes that have taken place in the cattle population since the current standards were adopted in 1979. Industry and other groups, including State Departments of Agriculture that officially grade feeder cattle for marketing programs, requested that these changes be made. The updated standards more accurately represent today's population of feeder cattle and thus should provide the industry with more meaningful market evaluations. | 2000-06-27 | 2000 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/06/27/00-16150/united-states-standards-for-grades-of-feeder-cattle | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-06-27/pdf/00-16150.pdf | Agriculture Department; Agricultural Marketing Service | 12,9 | The Agricultural Marketing Service is changing the official U.S. standards for grades of feeder cattle.
