Resumo: | Preconditioning is not new but has received considerable attention in recent years.  This research addresses two questions.  Are buyers of preconditioned feeder calves paying a price premium close to the performance benefits expected from preconditioning?  Is there information asymmetry in the value to the buyers compared with the premium they pay?  Buyers paid a price premium but less than the expected performance gains.  Thus, the hypothesis of asymmetry of information between buyers and sellers could not be confirmed.
