Abstract: In the modern beef industry, beef cattle farming has evolved towards larger and fewer operations. During the past decade (2012–2022), the number of beef cattle operations in the United States decreased by 14.6%, while the number of beef cows increased by 5.9% (USDA NASS, 2012, 2022). Notably, the number of beef cattle operations with 500 or more beef cows increased by 27.0% in 2022.
