Abstract

Three-breed corssbred calves of Piedmontese ×Simmental × Indigenous yellow cattle and Limousin × Simmental ×Indigenous yellow cattle were finished at middle - scale feedlot and farmer's family respectively for 180 days, gross weight gain of whole finishing period at middle-scale feedlot were 158. 25 kg and 152. 25 kg, 114. 25 kg and 103. 25 kg, respectively, and average daily gain were 879.15 g/ day and 845. 78 g/day, 634. 68g/ day and 574. 95 g/ day, respectively, which was significantly different (P 0. 01). Under the same feeding and management condition, finishing were not significantly different of the two crossbreeding combination(F0. 05), which demonstrated that three-breed crossbred calves should be finished on intensity feedlot.
