The ACCU-TRAC® ECM System employs science
and advanced technologies to manage and market cattle individually.
Rather than eyeballing and just guessing about animal performance,
beef producers can use objective criteria to make management
decisions. ECM® combines multiple objective measurements
on each individual – ultrasound for internal tissue
characteristics, video imaging for external dimensions, weight
-- along with other data such as health and pre-feedlot history
for optimum individual profit sorting, management, and marketing
whether at the feedyard or the ranch. This approach extends
to the packing plant as well with automated live and carcass
identification transfer and matching conducted along with
the use of ultrasound technology for valuation of carcass
characteristics. This results in better genetic decisions
by calf producers, higher profits for feeders, and increased
value for packers and consumers. The ACCU-TRAC® ECM System
combines food safety and beef traceability practices with
implementation so everyone wins. Consumers receive a wholesome
product and producers increase their profitability.
