Explanation / Answer

1. Birthing difficulties. When the beef cattles mate at very early stage, calving difficulties may occur due to small immature birth canal.

2. The cattles are usually fed on the high roughage diet.

3. Dehorning of cattles is done to provide on farm safety for animals, producers and employees.
