Market Valuation for Attributes of Female Beef Cattle Replacements
Keywords:
beef replacement females, hedonic price model, market values, beefAbstract
Previous studies have been carried out to estimate the market value for various traits of feeder cattle, but little work has been done to estimate the market value of various traits for replacement females. This study uses a hedonic price model to estimate the market value for various traits of beef replacement females in South Texas. The results of this study indicate that significant premiums exist for replacement beef cattle females that are first cross Brahman-Herford (F1) or straight Brahman. Quality factors also had a positive impact on price. Lot size was found to be statistically insignificant across all classes of replacement females.
