Comparative study of Holstein steer production systems
The analysis compares all forage and grain forage systems for Holstein steers with 7 to 12 months on pasture. It uses costs for corn at $3.00 per bushel forage at $60 per ton and supplement at $14 per 100 pounds, includes fixed labor and management costs, and excludes operator labor. Diets shift from 90:10 grain to forage after 120 pounds up to 430 pounds and 60:40 from 430 pounds to sale weight. fewer cattle on all-forage diets may reach Choice grade.
