dc.description.abstractThe objectives of this study are determination of optimum weight and comparison of profitability of different slaughter weights in intensively fed Brown Swiss Feeders. Animal material was a total of 30 Brown Swiss calve aging 10-12 months. Also, concentrated fattening feed was obtained from a private feed company and included in animal diets. Average daily gain was 1209.58, 1203.45, 1232.69, 1225.73 and 1193.46 g, feed conversion values 6.98, 7.64, 7.97, 8.58 and 10.07, cold carcass yields 56.96, 54.60, 56.06, 55.75 and 57.25% and finally carcass profitability per kg carcass 3.60 (1.89 (sic)), 2.98 (1.57 (sic)), 2.71(1.43 (sic)), 1.47 (0.77 (sic)) and 0.33 (0.17 (sic)) TL (Turkish Liras) for 450, 500, 550, 600 and 700 kg slaughter groups, respectively. As a result, it can be concluded that the most profitable optimum slaughter weight is about 500-550 kg for Turkish Brown Swiss Cattle. Also, 8-10 months age animals should be preferred in beef programs. We can also suggest that a 6-8 months fattening program to obtain 500-550 kg body weight will be more profitable.en_US
