Abstract
- The purpouse of this paper was to highlight the morpho-productive indicators of Aubrac and Aberdeen Angus cattle breeds exploited in Romania. Data were collected from a number of 40 cattle, following the weaning weight (age of 7 months) and the average daily gain increase of the animals, which benefited from similar exploitation conditions. Also, based on the results obtained, a statistical interpretation was performed. At the age of 7 months, an average body weight of 216.6 kg was observed in Aubrac cattle, with an average daily gain increase of 912 g/day, while in Aberdeen Angus cattle an average body weight of 184.3 kg was observed, the animals recorded an average daily gain increase of 799 g/day. In conclusion, in the case of both breeds of cattle, the satisfactory parameters specific to the breeds of meat were highlighted, but making a comparison we can appreciate that the results observed in the Aubrac breed are superior.
