Description:	The main objective of this study was to investigate environmental factors affecting yearling weight (YW) in pasture-raised Nellore cattle. The analysis revealed that climate, soil type, elevation, guidance from animal breeding technicians, years enrolled in the breeding program, livestock land area, and specific practices such as no-till farming, the period of the breeding season, and reproductive techniques are significantly associated with cattle growth.
