Two hundred seventy-seven crossbred yearling steers (719 Ib) were utilized in a 3-year study to determine the effect of combinations of Synovex-S and Finaplix-S on daily gain and carcass merit. Treatments included no implant (C), implanted with Synovex-S on day 1 and Synovex-S on about day 60 (SS), and implanted with Synovex-S on day 1 and the combination of Synovex-S and Finaplix-S on about day 60 (SSF).
