The data related to the growth- and finishing period (± 340-660 kg) of 306 doublemuscled bulls. As a standard for minimal physical structure requirement 0.60/kg DM can be advised for total mixed rations, with pelleted concentrates. For non-pelleted concentrates (ground or unground) this standard can also be used, but for non-mixed rations a somewhat higher structural value should be aimed at. %A De Campeneere, S. %A Fiems, L.
