Intensive development of beef cattle breeding is becoming a task of a national scale, which is reflected in all regulatory documents that determine the imperatives of the modern socio-economic development of our country. To solve this problem, of great necessity are scientifically based methods and mechanisms that will increase the intensity of meat production without reducing its biological value and nutritional qualities. This article substantiates the need to improve the forage base for the development of beef cattle breeding due to a more intensive grazing system on the arid territories in the South of Russia. The cattle feeding and keeping technology of that kind will contribute to the development of rural areas, employment and increase in the profitability of the beef production. Territory belongs to the zone of steppe and semi-desert landscapes and is noted for certain problems in terms of the grass and forage base. The conducted comparative analysis of meat obtained due to the technology of stable and grazing keeping of beef cattle bred on the arid territories has proved that pasturing cattle breeding enables the beef to exceed its analogues in biological value and in the composition of essential amino acids.

Polyodon spathula sturgeon breed is successfully reared in Romania in many fishery farms for meat production and it is capitalized on domestic market as consumption fish. In the current paper were studied a number of 1400 sturgeons from Polyodon spathula breed (1200 individuals of one summer - P.s.0+ and 200 individuals of fourth summers - P.s.3+). From this flock were weighted around 10%, for each age group, and for laboratory determinations were chosen 10 fishes for each age with the corporal mass close to the group mean. After analysing the fillets gathered from the studied fishes for establishing the chemical characteristics, nutritive and biological values of proteins were drawn some interesting conclusions. So, regarding chemical composition we notice that in the meat of analysed fishes water is in a rate of 75.41% at P.s.3+ and 78.37% for P.s.0+; proteins - between 18.08% for P.s.0+ and 19.89% for P.s.3+, values which place those fishes in the group of protein fishes; lipids - between 2.45% and 3.45%, values which situated those sturgeons in category of fishes with a low content in lipids; collagen � 3.83% at P.s.0+ and 4.14% at P.s.3+ which indicate low values for proteins of weak quality in the meat of those sturgeons. Study of nutritive value for the analysed fishes indicate the fact that fishes P.s.0+ have a mediocre nutritive value, having the ratio w/p of 4.33 while sturgeons P.s.3+ were placed in the 2nd category � fishes with a good nutritive value (rate w/p = 3.79). Energetic value of the studied fillets was 97.39 kcal/100 g for P.s.0+ and 114.31 kcal/100 g for P.s.3+, which enlightened an increase of nutritive value with aging, fact especially due to accumulation of adipose tissue. Study of proteins quality, through the presence of those 8 essential amino-acids in the meat of analysed fishes, show the fact that at sturgeons P.s.0+ proportion of essential amino-acids was 20.88% from total amino-acids, while at sturgeons P.s.3+ was 26.23%, fact which enlightened an increasing of proteins� biological value with fish aging. This fact was also shown by calculation of proteins� biological value through chemical methods (EAA index); calculated value for sturgeons P.s.0+ was a little bit lower (118.73) than the one calculated for sturgeons P.s.3+ (118.79).

Forage:Concentrate Ratio

The efficient production of lean beef suitable for current consumer demand necessitates effective rationing of beef cattle. Feeding standards for beef cattle given by ARC (1980) predict that a reduction in energy intake produces a large reduction in performance with little effect on the energy or fat contents of the gain. However previous studies have shown that diets containing a high proportion of grass silage may sustain lower levels of performance and result in a greater proportion of fat in the gain in both calves and finishing cattle, than when similar quantities of energy and protein are given in the form of high-concentrate diets. The effects of a change in energy intake on performance and carcass composition of beef cattle are therefore likely to depend on whether this change is achieved by restricting the quantity of food given or changing the forage: concentrate ratio of a diet given ad libitum.The present experiment was carried out to examine the effects of forage:concentrate ratio in the diet and ad libitum versus restricted dry matter intake on the performance, carcass composition and efficiency of lean meat production by steers.

The lack of capital for investment and limited access for small beef cattle farming to obtain credit from financial institution have contributed to the occurrence of share-beef cattle in rural areas. Through share-beef cattle pattern, the farmers (tenant) can rent livestock from other parties (individual nor government) within a share-beef cattle contract agreement. The purposes of this study were to determine the technical efficiency and the factors which influence the inefficiency from 108 small beef cattlebreeding, which consists of 59 farming operated by owner and 49 operated by tenant.  The unit samples were selected by snowball sampling method and analysed by Stochastic Frontier Production. Our study showed that the average technical efficiency of beef cattle breeding operated by owner was at 0.73, otherwise operated by tenant was at 0.790. The inefficiency of beef cattle breeding operated by owner has negatively corresponded to the number of cows, the farmer age, the age of cow and the application of artificial insemination (IA), but positively corresponded to allocation of family labour and level of farmer education. The inefficiency of beef cattle breeding operated by a tenant has negatively corresponded to the application of artificial insemination (AI). Specific conclusion of the study was the technical efficiency level of small beef cattle breeding was not only affected by the ownership of beef cattle but also by the pattern of share-beef cattle.  The share-beef cattle based on share income(50:50) may improve the value of technical efficiency compared to share-beef cattle based on share in-kind (share-beef cattle revolving cow or share-beef cattle revolving calf).

Subject. This article analyzes the meat production of the Republic of Tatarstan and the respective enterprises' competitiveness. The article discusses principles and measures to enhance the effectiveness of beef cattle breeding, and identifies its determinants. Objectives. The study aims to determine key directions for enhancing the effectiveness of the beef cattle breeding sector and its development. Methods. The study is based on comparison, systematization and generalization of data, and the methods of economic and statistical analysis. Results. To evaluate to what extent the meat productivity of cattle depends on its determinants and how they correlate, we performed a correlation and regression analysis by addressing the multiple correlation. We built a multiple-factor correlation and regression model of business activity of agricultural enterprises in the Predvolzhskaya Natural and Economic Zone for 2019. We figured out that 500 young growing cattle and livestock constitute the optimal size of cattle breeding enterprises in the Predvolzhskaya Natural and Economic Zone in the sampled population. Conclusions. The cost effectiveness of the overall agricultural production and certain types of products mostly depends on the scale of key sectors presented in agricultural enterprises and the extent of production concentration. In the market economy, the stable and effective performance of agricultural enterprises mainly depends on the relationship between the production and reprocessing of products. The findings can be used to outline methodological principles of the agricultural production economics, effectiveness, attain and increase the appropriate competitiveness of beef cattle breeding enterprises.

Изучен породный состав и численность племенного скота мясного направления продуктивности в Российской Федерации. На долю мясных пород в мире приходится 40%  от всего поголовья крупного рогатого скота. В России специализированное мясное скотоводство как самостоятельную отрасль животноводства начали создавать в начале 30-х годов прошлого века. На современном этапе в нашей стране разводят 12 пород крупного рогатого скота мясного направления продуктивности. К наиболее многочисленным относят абердин ангусскую, калмыцкую, герефордскую и казахскую белоголовую. Относительная численность животных этих пород составляет около 97% от всего поголовья скота мясного направления продуктивности. Лимузинская, галловейская, обрак, шаролезская, салерс имеют небольшой удельный вес, и совсем незначительный — у таких пород, как симментальская мясная, русская комолая и бланк-блю бельж. Территориальные и климатические особенности России позволяют в настоящее время заниматься мясным скотоводством в 59 регионах во всех федеральных округах. В 2000 году разводили 9 пород в 7 округах с численностью племенных животных около 82 тыс. голов. В 2019 году поголовье племенного мясного скота составило более 359 тыс., принадлежащих 12 породам, что в 4,4 раза больше по сравнению с 2000 годом. The article discusses the breed composition and number of breeding cattle for meat production in the Russian Federation. There are thousands of different breeds in the world, but only a few dozen are classified as meat. The share of beef cattle in the world accounts for 40% of the livestock, respectively 60% are dairy cattle. In Russia, specialized beef cattle breeding as an independent branch of animal husbandry began to be created in the early 30s of the last century. At the present stage, 12 breeds are bred in the beef cattle breeding of our country. Numerous breeds include Aberdeen Angus, Kalmyk, Hereford and Kazakh white-headed. The relative number of these breeds is about 97% of animals in the meat production direction. The rest of the breeds (Limousine, Galloway, Obrak, Charolais and Salers) have a lower specific weight. It is necessary to distinguish breeds with an insignificant specific gravity - these are Simmental meat, Russian hornless and blank-blue belge. The territorial and climatic features of Russia currently allow for beef cattle breeding in 59 regions in all federal districts. In 2000, 9 breeds were bred in 7 districts with about 82 thousand breeding animals. In 2019, the number of pedigree beef cattle amounted to more than 359 thousand heads belonging to 12 breeds, which is 4.4 times more than in 2000.
