Market Livestock at Lower Weights
In drylot feeding, gaining from 400 to 600 pounds for a calf needs about 1,000 pounds of corn. From 900 to 1,100 pounds a steer requires 2,150 pounds of corn. Pigs from 75 to 150 pounds need 465 pounds of feed, while 150 to 200 pounds costs 435 pounds. Higher weights raise feed needs, and marketing at lighter weights cuts cost per pound and reduces market glut.
