a Canadian plant summer 2006, 65% Graded AAA while 35% Graded AA.
Last year the total number of cattle harvested in Canadian plants only 42.5% graded AAA.
And most important, while most 2005 calves lost between $40 and $110 per head

Do your cattle make the grade???
Do your cattle turn a profit???
Be sure your cattle measure up...
