EVALUATE TEETH TO ESTIMATE CATTLE AGE
2013-09-27 21:22:58| Cattle Today
Cattle age information is useful in both cattle management and marketing. Age affects cattle value. Both replacement and market cows typically decline in value with advancing age. When possible birth records should be kept on cattle and follow them as they move from one operation to another. In this way, the exact ages of animals will be known. When cattle age records are not available, dentition may be used to estimate cattle age.
