Abstract
SUMMARY1. Hormonexa, a bio-active feed supplement, was included at the rate of 3·1 kg per 1000 kg of the concentrate ration for finishing Hereford · Ayrshire steers.2. Live-weight gain and food conversion were unaffected by the addition of Hormonexa.3. The killing-out percentage of the supplemented animals was significantly lower and their carcass quality was slightly, but not significantly, lower than that of the control animals.
