The most important carcass traits of Friesian bulls fattened on higher body mass have been delt with in the present research. The basic ration was grass silage and hay with the addition of two isoenergetically equal but differently composed feed mixture. In the first mixture the basic component was maize while barley was in the second one. Dissection of halves showed a statistically highly significant difference in the share of tallow per half between the group with maize and the group with barley (p=0.001) while no statistically significant differences were determined in LD meat composition, in the treated parameters i.e. protein content and intramuscular tallow content between the groups.
