The performance and beef quality characteristics of under 16 month bulls from 4 different production systems: [ad libitum concentrates offered indoors (AD), grass silage ad libitum plus 5 kg of supplementary concentrate offered indoors (S+C5), grazed grass plus 50% of the dietary intake as concentrates (G+C50) and grazed grass exclusively (G+CO)] were analysed. Results indicate that animal performance, colour and chemical composition were significantly affected by diet/ production system. However, no differences were found in ultimate pH or in meat tenderness after 14 days of ageing.
