National Beef Cattle Evaluation Consortium (NBCEC)

The National Beef Cattle Evaluation Consortium (NBCEC) is a cooperative group that brings together researchers, industry professionals, and government agencies to improve beef cattle through genetic research. They focus on developing and sharing tools to evaluate and select the best animals for traits like growth, meat quality, and health. By combining data from various sources, the NBCEC helps farmers and breeders make informed decisions to produce healthier, more productive cattle, ultimately benefiting the beef industry and consumers.
