That’s kind of a trick question…. Yes, they absolutely have something to do with marbling meat! You can marble poorer breads, it just takes a lot more time and work to get marble. Vs. some breeds marble way easier, and you don’t have to put so much work into them to get it. So, for the scope of it, YES! The breed can determine how much energy and time you have to put into the animal to get that marble, better genetics WILL have a quicker turnaround. That being said, That doesn’t mean that poorer genetics (within reason) can’t get to a good marbled state, but it may take you a bit more time. And we all know, more time = more grass = more money in your investment🐂.
Thanks for reply. We grow Lowline Angus. They marble great on grass but we are a closed herd and can’t find anything around like it to source for our customers so I’ve been looking at some others breeds that are more available but a little worried about having some disappointing results. Thanks again, good video

I'm working towards some land and want to get a handful of cows. Thanks for the video. My aim is all organic, grass fed beef.

Consider installing a Screech Owl nest box. Owls eat rodents which host ticks and attract pit vipers.
Thank you for your comment!
We will look into that

Do you think genetics and breed have much to do with the meat marbling out.

Grass fed beef is low quality beef...
Thanks for watching.
Poor video if they are grass fed beef then turn them out on graSS NP BRAINER
Absolutely! However, there is a technique to knowing when they have finished out to be “good eating” on grass!
