A 29-month feeding program, thousands of kilograms of mostly imported feed, a strict marbling scale, and a Kobe certification covering about 5,500 animals a year: the biology and economics behind Wagyu's price.

DNA is the instruction manual for every living thing. Here's how its four-letter code builds proteins, copies itself, and passes traits from parent to child — explained in plain language.
