Until recently, there have been many researches about the freezing methods and several methods of cryopreservation. Hypothermic preservation has been used to complement the embryo freezing technology. There is a study to show the successful results for long-term hypothermic preservation. For that reason, FBS and BSA are commonly added to the culture medium to support embryo development. We investigated the effectiveness of hypothermic preservation method at 4℃ according to embryonic developmental stages for Hanwoo embryos and evaluated the effect of FBS and BSA on Hanwoo embryos as a supplemental reagent in hypothermic preservation medium after recovering preserved embryos from hypothermic preservation. The present study reported that survival and hatching rates of embryos at morula stage following storage at 4℃ is Day 7 group was significantly higher (p < 0.05) compared than those of other groups (p < 0.05). As a result, the survival and hatching rates of embryos at the blastocyst stage following storage at 4℃ result is showed that significantly higher (p < 0.05) survival rates than those of other groups an Day 6. The result showed that hatching rate at Day 6 and 7 were significantly lower (p < 0.05) compared with other groups. The result regarding the survival and hatching rates of bovine embryos following storage at 4℃ for 72 h in various concentrations of BSA are shown The results showed that survival rate of 1% BSA group was not significantly different (p < 0.05) compare with control (FBS) group. Also, the results showed that hatching rate of control (FBS) and 1% BSA were significantly different (p < 0.05) compared with other groups. In conclusion, our result demonstrated that the hypothermic preservation did not effect on the survival and hatching rates of embryos after recovering. In addition, the supplementation of BSA in preservation medium showed no difference in the embryo developmental competence after hypothermic preservation compared to FBS treatment. With that, BSA can be an alternative reagent for the hypothermic preservation medium as an energy source and pH buffer.

This study was conducted to improve growth performance of Hanwoo heifer and to produce high quality of meat with dietary means during growing and early fattening period. Particularly, additional energy diet to relieve estrus stress was main purpose in this study. The results of in vitro rumen fermentation indicated that there was no negative effect by additional energy diet as treatments. In the feeding trial, twenty Hanwoo heifers(average 10 months age) were allocated and distributed into two treatments in randomized block design based on body weight. There were three growth stages such as growing, early fattening and late fattening periods in this feeding program, respectively. In growing stage, there were two treatments consisting of only total mixed ration(TMR) as a control and TMR with additional energy treatment. The experimental diets were fed twice a day, and water and mineral were freely accessed. In additional energy treatment, 500 g of concentrate diet was fed daily to relieve estrus stress due to obese with high energy intake. Not outstandingly differences were found across the treatments during entiretrial period. While, unexpectedly greater feed conversion ratio in treatment compared to the control was found during late fattening period. It seems that the blood cortisol decreased with addition energy supplementation compared with the control during trail period. Carcass characteristics including carcass weight, back fat thickness, marbling score, meat color, fat color, maturity and texture were not significantly different each other. Rib-eye area, however, was greater in the control compared to the treatment(p<0.05). In addition, it appears that yield index was tended to be greater in the control. In conclusion, it is suggested that additional energy supplementation to Hanwoo heifer could get a potential in improving meat quality and relieving estrus stress.

본 연구는 한우 암소비육에 있어서 고 에너지의 육성용 TMR(TDN 72.7%DM, CP 13.65%DM)을 육성기(8~12개월령) 및 비육기(13~24개월령)까지는 제한급여하고, 이후 비육 마무리기(25~32개월령)까지 자유 채식시켰을 때, 증체수준, 도체특성 및 경제성에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 수행되었다. 공시축은 한우 암소 35두(8개월령)를 이용하여 Control구(5두), T1(10두), T2(10두) 및 T3(10두)구로 나누어 난괴법으로 배치하였다. 공시사료는 전기간 동일한 육성용 TMR을 Control구에서는 자유채식 시켰고, T1, T2, T3구에서는 각각 체중의 1.8%, 1.6% 및 1.5%로 제한하여 24개월령까지 급여하였다. 한우 암소의 체중은 비육마무리기간에서 Control구에 비해 T1, T2 및 T3 처리구가 각각 4.9%, 3.6% 및 2.5% 높은 것으로 나타났다 (p<0.05). 일일증체량은 육성기에는 Control구와 T1구가 다른 처리구에 비해 높았으며(p<0.05), 비육마무리기의 T1 처리구가 다른 처리구에 비해 높았다(p<0.05). 건물섭취량과 TDN 섭취량은 비육마무리기간에서 T1구가 가장 높았다(p<0.05). 고 에너지의 육성우용 TMR을 전 기간동안 급여함으로써 도체중과 배최장근 단면적이 일반적인 한우 암소비육 결과에 비해 현저히 증가되었다. 처리구별 도체중은 Control구에 비해 T1구가 약 11.6% 많았으며(p<0.05), 지방색과 성숙도는 Control구에서 높았다(p<0.05). 근내지방도, 육색 및 조직감은 처리구간 유의적 차이는 없었으나, 육량등급 출현율에 있어서는 Control구에서 A등급이 60%로서 다른 처리구에 비해 높았다. 육질등급에서 1++ 등급 출현율은 Control, T1, T2 및 T3구에서 각각 0%, 20%, 20% 및 0%로 나타났다. 순수익은 Control구에 비해 T1과 T2구가 각각 15% 및 13% 증가되었으나 T3구는 2% 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로, 한우 미경산우 비육 시, 고에너지의 육성용 사료를 육성기부터 비육기(13~24개월령)까지 체중의 1.8% 수준으로 제한 급여하는 것이 전 기간 동안 자유채식시키는 것보다 도체중이나 육질등급 증가로 경제성이 향상되어 한우암소 고급육생산 프로그램 개발에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of high levels of nutrients on the growth performance, blood metabolites and carcass characteristics of Hanwoo cattle. Eighteen Hanwoo steers were fed two types of diets: 1) Nine animals were fed the conventional diet including typical levels of crude protein (CP) and total digestive nutrients (TDN), and 2) Nine animals were fed the treatment diet including high levels of CP and TDN. The average body weight (BW) and dry matter intake (DMI) were greater (P < 0.05) in the treatment group than in the conventional group at early and late fattening stages. Also, in the treatment group, the average daily gain (ADG) was greater (P < 0.05) at the late fattening stage. The serum total lipid and cholesterol levels were higher (P < 0.05) in the late fattening stage of treatment group. The carcass weight, total fat weight, longissimus muscle area and the grade of meat quality were also greater (P < 0.05) in the treatment group than the conventional diet group. This study demonstrates that high levels of CP and TDN exhibit a positive effect on the growth performance and carcass characteristics, indicating that high levels of CP and TDN can be used as a cost-effective feeding program for Hanwoo cattle by shortening the feeding period.

The objective of this study was to investigate changes in drying yield, pH, water activity, microbial growth, and storage stability of bottom rounds of Hanwoo beef under four different dry-aging treatments (T1–T4) as temperature (2~4℃), relative humidity (65~86%) and dry-aging period (20~90 d). The drying yield decreased by 83.13–97.05% as the drying period increased. Among the four treatments, there were no significant differences in drying yield after 60 d of dry-aging. The total plate aerobic counts (TPC) increased by 1.07–4.39 log colony-forming units (CFU)/g as the dry-aging period increased. Of the four treatments, T4 at 40, 60, and 90 d had significantly higher TPCs than those observed for the other treatments on the same days (p<0.05). As the period of dry-aging increased, pH values increased by 5.35– 5.88 for knuckle and 5.34–5.62 for sirloin muscle, and water activity values decreased. For knuckle and sirloin muscle, the water activity values at 40 d and 60 d of T1 and T4 were significantly higher than those of the other treatments on the same days (p<0.05). The thiobarbituric reactive substances and volatile basic nitrogen values of the aged products increased as the dry-aging period increased. The results of this study showed that dry-aging conditions such as those in the T2 or T3 treatments (with a gradual increase in temperature and humidity) for less than 60 d would be best for yield, reduction of microbial growth and storage stability by dry the muscle surface quickly at the beginning period. Further research should include meat quality and economic analysis for these conditions that examines the benefits of these dry-aged products for the end processor.

본 연구는 건조숙성 조건에 따른 한우 설도육의 이화학적 및 관능적 특성 변화를 조사하고자 수행하였다. 한우 거세 1등급 설도육 54개를 구입하여 온도(2℃, 4℃), 상대습도(65%, 75%, 85%) 및 건조숙성기간(10~90일)에 따라 4종(T1~T4)의 조건으로 나누어 건조숙성하면서 도가니살 및 보섭살의 육질특성과 삼각살을 포함한 관능특성을 비교하였다. 도가니 및 보섭살의 지방함량은 4개 처리구 모두에서 숙성기간이 증가함에 따라 유의적으로 증가하였다(p<0.05). 반면에 수분함량은 건조숙성기간이 증가함에 따라 도가니육은 T2와 T4, 보섭육은 T2에서 유의적으로 감소하였다(p<0.05). 도가니 및 보섭육의 육색은 건조숙성기간이 증가됨에 따라 4개의 처리구 모두 L값(백색도), a값(적색도), b값(황색도)이 유의적으로 감소하였다. 가열감량은 도가니육의 경우 T2만 건조숙성기간이 증가할수록 감소되는 경향이었고 나머지 3개 처리구는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 보섭육의 경우 가열감량은 처리구 4개 모두 건조숙성기간이 증가할수록 감소되는 경향이었다. 동일한 숙성일 내 처리구간 비교에서는 T2가 가열감량이 유의적으로 가장 낮았다. 전단력은 도가니육과 보섭육 모두 4개 처리구에서 건조숙성기간이 증가할수록 유의적으로 감소한 반면(p<0.05) 보수력은 유의적으로 증가하였다(p<0.05). 관능특성 변화에서 도가니육, 보섭육 및 삼각살은 건조숙성기간이 증가할수록 모든 처리구에서 연도가 증가하였다. 다즙성은 도가니육과 삼각살은 T2와 T4에서 증가하였고, 향미는 삼각살만 T2와 T4에서 증가하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 4개의 처리구에 대한 한우 설도육의 육질 및 관능특성 분석결과 전단력, 보수력 및 연도가 모두 향상되었으며 특히 처리구 2 조건은 가열감량과 관능적 기호도에서 더 유리하게 작용한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 한우 설도육은 온도와 습도를 단계적으로 상승시키면서 약 60일 이내로 하는 것이 육질, 맛과 경제성 면에서 적절할 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구는 체성숙이 완료된 15개월령 이상의 한우 암소로부터 초음파 측정 장치를 활용하여 조사된 등지방두께(UBF), 배장근단면적(UEMA), 근내지방도(UMS)의 형질들에 대한 유전능력을 추정하기 위한 통계분석방법을 도출하기 위한 연구로써 신체충실지수 및 월령에 대한 사전 보정의 효율성을 알아보고 유전평가를 위한 형질별 유전모수를 추정함으로써 유전능력 추정의 효율성을 향상하기 위한 방안을 도 출하고자 실시하였다. 분석에 이용된 자료는 2001년부터 전국의 1,004농가에서 사육중인 15개월령 이 상의 한우 암소 38,663두로부터 조사된 초음파 측정 육질관련 형질들에 대하여 조사된 자료를 이용하였다. 흉위 및 도축형질들에 대한 성장곡선함수식을 추정하기 위하여 농가-년-월(HYM) 및 신체충실지 수(BCS)에 대한 통계모형식을 통하여 사전보정을 실시하고 Von Bertalanfy함수식을 이용한 비선형 성장곡선 함수식을 추정하였다. 또한 도축형질들에 대하여 개체별로 조사된 관측치는 성장곡선 함수식에 대한 편차로 자료변환한 후에 유전모수를 추정한 결과, 각 형질별 유전력은 UBF에서 0.29, UEMA는 0.56 및 UMS에서 0.49의 추정치를 보였다.

This study was conducted to investigate whether dietary levels of copra and palm meals affect the growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat properties of Hanwoo steers. Eighty-one Hanwoo steers were randomly assigned to one of three dietary groups: T1 (conventional level of palm and copra meals), T2 (20% copra meal and 15% palm meal), and T3 (30% copra meal and 20% palm meal). During the growing and early fattening periods, the average daily gains and formula feed intakes of T2 and T3 were higher than that of T1; however, those differences were not statistically significant. The dietary levels of copra and palm meals did not affect carcass weight, back fat thickness, and rib-eye areas. Marbling scores and meat quality grades were lower in T3 than in T1 and T2; however, those differences were not statistically significant. Meat color, fat color, texture, and maturity were similar among the treatment groups. In addition, dietary levels of copra and palm meals did not affect the chemical and fatty acid composition of longissimus dorsi muscles in Hanwoo steers. Thus, the present results indicate that high supplementation levels of copra and palm meals do not negatively affect the growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat properties of Hanwoo steers.

본 연구는 2006년부터 2016년 사이에 강원도 축산기술연구소에서 출생한 한우 송아지 1,069두로부터 조사된 이유시 체중과 임신기간, 생시체중 및 포유기 일당증체량 및 이유시 체중을 이용하여 단순상관, 다중 회귀 및 경로분석 등을 통해 이유시 체중과 임신기간, 생시체중 및 포유기 일당증체량 간의 상관 관계를 규명하였다. 통계분석은 조사된 원 성적을 이용하여 실시하는 동시에 조사된 원 성적을 송아지 출생 연도-계절, 송아지의 성, 어미의 산차 및 이유일령(포유기 일당증체량과 이유시 체중에만 해당) 등과 같은 환경효과에 대해 보정한 값인 잔차를 이용해서도 실시하였다. 조사된 형질들 간의 상관계수는 모두 양수였는데, 임신기간은 생시체중과의 잔차상관계수가 +0.315로서 중정도 크기였던 반면 포유 기 일당증체량이나 이유시 체중과의 잔차상관계수는 각각 +0.039와 +0.130으로서 작거나 0에 가까운 값이었다. 이유시 체중은 포유기 일당증체량과의 잔차상관계수가 +0.949로서 생시체중과의 상관계수인 +0.323보다 컸다. 잔차를 이용한 경로분석 결과 이유시 체중의 변이에 미치는 임신기간, 생시체중 및 포유기 일당증체량의 전체 기여도는 각각 0, 0.095 및 0.892로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과, 임신기간, 생시 체중 및 포유기 일당증체량 중에서 포유기 일당증체량이 이유시 체중의 변이에 가장 큰 영향력을 미치는 형질인 것으로 나타났다.

Both carcass yield and meat quality are important indices for beef grade, and consequently they are crucial factors for determining beef consumption and price. However, an optimal slaughter time for satisfying high carcass yield and meat quality has not been systemically evaluated, and identifying the time requires their relationship. Therefore, the objective of this study is 1) to examine the distribution of carcass yield by quality index, and 2) to investigate correlation between factors for judging grades of carcass yield and meat quality. We applied statistical analysis (ANOVA and correlation) for the data of Hanwoo (892 data points: bulls=311, cows=163, steers=418) slaughtered from 1995 to 2006. As a result of ANOVA, the mean difference of carcass yield in quality grade 3 was different with grade 1+, 1, and 2(p<0.05). In the correlation analysis, the meat quality grade showed a positive weak correlation with carcass yield (r=0.259, p<0.05), but was negatively correlated to carcass weight and back-fat thickness which were factors for carcass yield index calculation (-0.225 and -0.154, respectively, p<0.05). The results provide an initial idea for relating carcass yield and quality so that we can use it for determining the optimal time for slaughting.

본 연구는 경북지역 거세 한우의 출하체중에 따른 도체 특성 및 부분육 생산량을 조사하여 고기의 생 산성을 도체로부터 평가하기 위하여 실시하였다. 경북지역 거세 한우 51두를 도착체중 700kg미만, 701~750kg, 751~800kg, 801~850kg, 850kg초과 5그룹으로 나누어 가공단계별 중량변화, 도체규격, 대분할 부위 생산량 및 수율, 소분할 부위 생산량 및 수율, 부산물 생산량 및 수율을 조사하였다. 가공 단계별 중량변화는 한우의 출하체중이 증가함에 따라 온도체중, 냉도체중, 대분할육, 소분할육, 뼈량, 지방량이 증가하였다. 도체규격은 한우의 출하체중이 증가함에 따라 전장, 전사분체장, 흉장, 경폭, 흉 폭, 퇴폭, 흉위, 퇴위, 흉후가 증가하였다. 부산물 생산량은 한우의 출하체중이 증가함에 따라 머리, 앞 족, 뒷족, 가죽, 간, 소장, 배지방, 생식기, 신장, 기타지방량이 증가하였다. 도체부산물은 한우의 출하 체중이 증가함에 따라 사골, 꼬리반골, 도가니, 마구리, 잡뼈, 갈비뼈량이 증가하였다.

본 연구는 우리나라 일반 농가에서 사육중인 한우 암소 348두의 도체중, 등심단면적, 등지방두께 및 근내지방도에 대하여 EBV(Estimated Breeding Value) 및 GEBV(Genomic Estimated Breeding Value)의 정확도를 비교하였다. EBV 분석은 한우 암소 348두의 혈통정보와 농협경제지주 한우개량사 업소의 당대검정우 및 후대검정우의 혈통정보 및 표현형정보를 이용하여 혈연계수행렬(Numeric Relation Matrix, NRM)을 구축하여 BLUP(Best Linear Unbiased Prediction) 방법으로 분석하였다. GEBV 분석은 표현형정보와 유전체정보가 있는 후대검정우 3,820두를 참조집단으로 이용하여 한우 암소 348두의 SNP 50K 정보와 유전체 혈연 행렬(Genetic Relationship Matrix, GRM)을 구축하여 GBLUP(Genomic Best Linear Unbiased Prediction) 방법으로 분석하였다. 그 결과, 한우 암소 348두 에 대한 EBV 및 GEBV의 정확도 차이는 도체중, 등심단면적, 등지방두께 및 근내지방도에서 GEBV의 정확도가 각각 22.90%, 11.14%, 12.28% 및 8.69% 증가됨을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 유전체 선발 시 육종가 추정의 정확도 증가를 볼 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 이는 유전체선발을 위한 기초자료로써 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

We observed the external genitalia and uterus of a 24-month-old freemartin Hanwoo. The vulva was smaller than observed in a normal female Hanwoo, while the clitoris was larger in the freemartin. The angle between the external genitalia and the perineum also varied. Upon internal genital examination, the uterus of the freemartin was a thin tube approximately 18 cm in size and had not differentiated into a normal uterus and uterine horns.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary addition of pegmatite for Hanwoo steers on the carcass characteristics. Based upon the findings yielded by the research referenced above, the results may be summed up as follows : Oleic acid was for the most part, higher as T2 plots (45.40%) and T3 plots (44.20%) compared with Con. plots (42.50%). As well, this study has shown that the treatment plots in unsaturated fatty acid (UFA), monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) were largely higher than that of Con. plots, and of them all, T2 plots were highest. As for the melting point of fat, T2 plots (29℃) were largely lower than that of Con. plots (31.9℃). This study has shown that the treatment plots were significant higher as the content of total essential amino acid and total amino acid and inosine monophosphate in the nucleotide compound for the Hanwoo beef was treatment plots when compared with Con. plots.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of fermented spent mushroom substrates (F-SMS) of Flammulina velutipes on growth performance, carcass traits, and economic characteristics of Hanwoo steers. A yeast strain (Saccharomyces sp. UJ14) and Bacillus strain (Bacillus sp. UJ03) isolated from fresh spent mushroom substrates of Flammulina velutipes were used as probiotics to prepare F-SMS. Twenty-four Hanwoo steers (14 months old) were allocated to three dietary treatments via a randomized block design and were slaughtered at 30 months of age. These treatment groups included Control (TMR), T1 (TMR containing 10% of F-SMS) group, and T2 (TMR containing 30% of F-SMS). Body weight gain was not influenced by the experimental diets. DM and TDN intakes in the finishing period were significantly (p < 0.05) greater in group T1 than in other groups. CP intake was significantly (p < 0.05) greater in group T2 than in other groups during the whole experimental period. Among carcass traits, rib-eye area and back fat thickness tended to increase with F-SMS supplementation. The appearance rate (%) of a meat yield more than grade A was the highest in group T1. The net profits increased by 1.2% and 13.3% in groups T1 and T2, respectively. In conclusion, if a proper feeding program (including feed safety) can be ensured, spent mushroom substrates of Flammulina velutipes can prove to be a highly profitable feed source for Hanwoo steers.

Bropirimine, a class of antineoplastic agents, is known as one of the potent immunomodulators and is currently under clinical development for the treatment of cancer. However, the effect of bropirimine on the cow remains unknown as a therapeutics agent. In this experiment, the effect of bropirimine in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or concanavalin-A (Con-A) was examined. Jugular venous blood was collected from Korean Hanwoo calves and PBMCs were isolated. It was used to study the effect of bropirimine upon stimulation with LPS or Con-A for 72 hours. The expression pro-inflammatory cytokines like Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNF-α) and Interferon γ (IFN-γ) were confirmed. Bropirimine significantly inhibited LPS- or Con-A-induced TNF-α and Con-A-induced IFN-γ in dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, Bropirimine inhibited TNF-α and Con-A mRNA expression at the transcription level. These results clearly indicated that bropirimine inhibited LPS or Con-A stimulated up-regulation of proinflammatory cytokines in a dose-dependent manner without conspicuous cytotoxicity. The bropirimine has potential to protect cow from LPS or Con-A induced endotoxin shock, possibly through inhibition of the production of proinflammatory cytokines. It suggesting that bropirimine may be a novel therapeutic agent for the prevention of inflammatory diseases. This result revealed specific features of the immune responses depending on the bropirimine compound and would help to knowledge of bovine immunity.

Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) is a cost-efficient method which can be useful for SNP marker discovery in a population of interest. GBS is genome reduction sequencing method using restriction enzyme. The quality of DNA is a key factor which could have an influence in downstream analysis. However, there have not been many studies which investigated the impact of DNA degradation and the quality of the data on marker discovery. In this study, GBS data of 6 Hanwoo samples (H1~6) showing differing level of DNA degradation were compared. Re-sequencing pipeline was followed to investigate the impact of DNA degradation on marker discovery. As a result, we found that the quantity and quality of SNPs were not affected in the sample H5 and H6 with moderately degraded DNA. On the other hand, marker discovery was greatly affected in samples with severe DNA degradation (H3 and H4). The findings in this study support that GBS is a robust genotyping method towards moderate DNA degradation.

본 연구는 한우가격에 미치는 도체형질의 기여도 변화추세에 대해 조사하기 위해 실시하였다. 연구에 이용된 재료는 한우 거세우 35,247두의 도축자료를 이용하여, 자료의 구조분석과 일반성적, 분산분석 및 유의성검정, 가격에 대한 도체형질의 기여도분석을 실시하였다. 효과검정을 위해 등지방두께, 배최 장근단면적, 도체중, 근내지방도, 경락가격, 전체가격 등 6개의 형질을 이용하였고, 분석한 도축년도의 효과검정에서 조사된 모든 형질이 고도의 유의적인 차이(p<0.01)를 나타내었다. 한우가격에 미치는 도 체형질의 기여도 분석을 위해 다중회귀분석을 실시하여 각 독립변수의 준부분상관자승값(squared semi-partial correlation)을 이용하였다. 경락가격의 R2 값(결정계수)은 0.5422로 나타났고 전체가격 의 R2 값은 0.7141로 나타났다. 경락가격에 대한 준부분상관자승값 결과는 등지방두께가 0.0235, 배최 장근단면적이 0.0072, 도체중이 0.0001, 근내지방도가 0.3821로 나타났고, 전체가격에 대한 준부분상 관자승값은 등지방두께가 0.0161, 배최장근단면적이 0.0047, 도체중이 0.1691, 근내지방도가 0.2341로 나타났다. 가격에 미치는 도체형질의 기여도 변화추세는 2011년 이후 육질의 기여도가 꾸준하게 떨어지 는 추세를 보이고 있었고, 육량형질의 기여도는 높아지는 추세를 나타내고 있었다. 근내지방도의 가격 기여도가 낮아지는 것은 가격의 변화, 1등급 이상 출현율 상승, 도축물량증가로 인해 변별력이 떨어진 이유라고 보여지며 이러한 결과는 장기적인 관점을 가지고 지켜볼 필요가 있으며, 한우 산업이 경쟁력 을 갖기 위해서는 추가적인 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.
