Beef production from dairy bulls under two different production systems and its effect on the fatty acid profile and beef quality

Bulls in dairy production are usually slaughtered at an early age to avoid production problems and unnecessary costs. However, the animals could be a source of additional income and better quality meat. The objective of this work was to determine the characteristic and quantity of fatty acids of the...
