Prof. R S Curtis of North Carolina State College argues that native pastures yield only about one pound gain per animal daily and low returns, while well seeded tame pastures with proper care can meet or exceed six percent returns. He urges plowing up old pastures, reseeding, and steady growth from birth to market to maximize profits. Pasture plus feed, kept consistently growing, is the path to money in beef cattle.
