Feeding Program
14 – 30 month – Feeders/ Finisher Ration + Rice Straw
Restrict Vitamin A consumption and maximize feed consumption until
last minutes to develop marbling

Why Japanese Style??
Managing animal in small group
Minimize variation in feed consumption
Managing by age group to control ration changes
Managing animal in shed
Minimize stress of environment effect
Minimize feed wastage
Japanese Style Feed Ration
Maximize marbling ability
Maximize eating quality by control fatty acid composition
(MUFA : BMW 57.1% VS Angus 49.6 )

Key Point of Wagyu Feeding
Early weaning and supplement nutrition is essential for Wagyu calf growth because milk production of Wagyu cow is limited.
Muscle development at young age will determine beef yield
Rumen conditioning at post weaning age (4 ~ 9month old) is essential to enhance high feed consumption for later stage
Roughage consumption will increase rumen sizes and maintaining rumen bacteria population
Maintaining feed consumption as long as possible is key to increase marbling score. Irregular feed consumption will induce gastrointestinal problem and hence low meat quality.
