Instrument grading data were collected from 18 beef processing facilities from January to December 2016 (n=4,544,635 carcasses). Mean USDA yield grade (YG) factors were YG (3.1), adjusted fat thickness (1.37 cm), M. longissimus area (88.9 cm²), hot carcass weight (393.6 kg), and kidney, pelvic, and heart fat (1.9%). Frequency distribution of YG were YG 1 (9.5%), YG 2 (34.6%), YG 3 (38.8%), YG 4 (14.6%), and YG 5 (2.5%). Monthly mean marbling scores were January (Small⁷³), February (Small⁸⁰), March (Small⁸¹), April (Small⁷⁷), May (Small⁷⁰), June (Small⁶⁷), July (Small⁷⁰), August (Small⁷⁵), September (Small⁷⁴), October (Small⁷⁶), November (Small⁸³), and December (Small⁷⁹). Instrument grading data in the National Beef Quality Audit reflect its increasing predominance throughout the U.S. fed beef industry.
