This study was
conducted in Suluova town of Amasya province. Stratified sampling procedure was
used to get sample size and 117 beef cattle operations were included in the
analyses. The data for 2016-2017 production season gathered through
questionnaires constituted the primary material of the study. Production costs
and live weight gains of operations were calculated for different races (local,
hybrid and culture races). Number of animals were identified as 5.89 for local
races, 2.44 for hybrid races and 27.95 for culture races. As the average of
operations, daily live weight gain was calculated as 718.83 g/animal for local
races, 825.84 g/animal for hybrid races and 1 103.80 g/animal for culture
races. Again, as the average of operations, total production cost was
calculated as 1 655.34 TL for local races, 1 747.71 TL for hybrid races and 1
630.92 TL for culture races. Initial animal material cost constituted the
greatest cost item in all groups. Feed consumption per kg live weight gain was
calculated as 13.02 kg for local races, 7.70 kg for hybrid races and 7.13 kg
for culture races. As compared to the other races, the live weight gain per kg
feed was greater in culture races.
