Practical in Body

"Practical in body" refers to an animal, typically cattle or steers, that has a physical structure that favors efficient feed intake and conversion. Such animals usually have a bold, deep rib design, which enhances their capacity to consume and convert feed into body mass. The term also implies that these animals are more likely to develop greater muscle mass on their skeletons. Practical animals often balance better and are sometimes also referred to as "easy feeding," due to their efficient utilization of nutrients.
